We have very few trees in the area and cannot wait several years for them to grow enough to produce ample shade. Also we have an outdoor classroom on the playground as well (kind of like a gazebo). Can these solar shades be used to "power" the outdoor classroom? I live in North Carolina and we are designing a playground at a school.

As the solar shade is made sufficient to replace a tree for shadow but it should not create oxygen which is basic need of our body. And i think a person 'll not think about that and he 'll replace it for electricity which is important in todays date also... So i wont think it is good for future gen....

There are often problems setting up marquees and tents for such occasions how portable is this unit? Maybe we could use them at bus stops or temporary shelters in the bush. In this country our need for the most environmentally friendly power collection and shelter are paramount.
