When construction on Mueller, a mixed-use urban village in Austin, Texas first began nearly a decade ago, developers set up a number of environmental and aesthetic rules to safeguard the green spaces and keep the town from taking on an industrial feel. So when a massive retail lot was proposed, Mueller agreed to let it be built on one condition: loading docks behind the stores had to be covered up. Enter Sunflowers, An Electric Garden Austin's largest public art installation.
In addition to providing shade for walkers and bikers, the solar flowers collect energy during the day to power the installation's blue LED lights at night. Leftover power is sent to the grid to offset the cost of maintaining the installation. If only every city required industrial sites to be covered up with similar art projects!

Renewable energy is going to be the next source of energy once we are finished with our fossil reserves. But not much has been done around the world so far, to yield solar energy on large scale. This may be a big concern in the near future.
