: Why don’t all buildings use solar panels on their roofs to generate electricity?
In: Technology
I like the idea of solar panels.
But we live in an apartment building.
I cannot grab the space on the roof for my personal use. It is a common space for all residents of the building.
We could all get together for installing the panels but solar panels which can fulfill the requirements of an entire building would need a lot more space than is available on our rooftop.
We could install them to run our common amenities I guess, like the lights in the lobbies or in the parking spaces etc.
But then people won’t be able to go for a stroll on the terrace or to sit in the sun. Because the panels would occupy the space.
