Solar Veloroute
Special Mention

Details
The idea of covering the bicycle routes with »Veloroutes« – the aesthetic, electricity-generating photovoltaic canopies and transforming them into attractive landscape structures is not only sustainable but creates a kind of sculptural variety that becomes an architectural symbol for the change from gas-powered cars to more sustainable ways of mobility. Just one Kilometer of the »Veloroute« could provide around 2000 MWh of electricity and could power hundreds of households.
