New York City's new solar-powered school buses will support the grid too

That's awesome! Now can we cover parking lots in solar panels? Thus giving electricity and shade in one of the hottest environments? I would absolutely give my business to a company that did that.
- It would be so nice to return to a shaded, charged vehicle on a hot sunny day. Seems like a great idea.
  
  I am quite furious at a local supermarket installing sun-shades over their parkinglot and it is not solar panels but rather a really stupid looking permanent tent structure that couldn't even be retrofitted with solar-panels. This is so stupid that I decided to boycott them over this alone.
- I'd much prefer turning parking lots into parks, but this is a good short-term compromise
  
  They need somewhere to park though.
