Community solar on warehouse roofs
Here’s one that’s practically a no-brainer, if we can figure out a few regulations and simplify the payment model: cover all the giant warehouses with solar panels. US warehouses alone have an estimated 16.4 billion square feet of rooftop space, and that’s not counting strip malls, office buildings, etc. Nobody’s going to complain about how it looks, and nobody’s going to make up stories about poisoned potatoes. Set up the incentives the right way, and warehouse owners will be clamoring for it.
