Solar PV
From SanFranciscoEVA
Using solar photovoltaic (PV) panels on or near your home to power an electric vehicle (EV) gives you a car that essentially runs on sunshine. PV/EV may be the most important concept in clean transportation and sensible energy policies of this century. We'll be adding more to this section in the future, but in the meantime, check out these resources.
