"The local Australian subsidiary of Spanish clean energy company Iberdrola has
completed the installation of two solar bus shelters in Melbourne’s west, each
spanning over 65 metres in length and with a combined capacity of 65kW.
Located at the Deer Park train station in Melbourne’s outer western suburbs,
the two solar bus shelters are expected to generate 80,000kWh of renewable
energy each year.
The bus shelter roof is constructed entirely from solar panels and paired with
a water protection system and vandal-resistant cladding underneath.
Part of the renovations at the Deer Park Station being undertaken as part of
the Victorian government’s Level Crossing Removal Project, the 65kW array feeds
directly into the station building and is expected to offset nearly 4,000MWh of
electricity over the asset’s lifetime."
