Solar energy has expanded into multiple modes of transportation and the industry continues to grow. We can now find solar-powered cars, trains, aircraft, watercraft, and the many electric vehicles that are being powered by a growing number of solar energy hubs. The potential for various types of planes to be powered by solar energy is particularly exciting and great strides are being made in this field.
Recreation vehicles have been employing solar energy for years and the number of applications in this field is growing from golf carts to huge motor homes.
Interesting innovations are being developed in the field of solar-powered parking lots and roadways that can charge vehicles. We of course have had solar-powered pedestalled street lights for roadways and parking ticket devices for years
