Research argues that fully integrated solar airports would significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and could be up to 10 times more effective than existing residential rooftop PV systems.

Credit: RMIT University A new study has found Australias government-owned airports could produce enough electricity to power 136,000 homes, if they had large-scale rooftop solar systems installed. Researchers at RMIT University compared electricity generated by residential solar panels in a regional Australian city to the potential green energy production of 21 leased federal airports. They found if large-scale solar panels were installed at the airports, they would generate 10 times more elect...
