Eco Factor: Concept gasoline station harvests solar energy to recharge EVs. With the rise in the number of electric and plug-in hybrid cars on the streets, it will be important for gasoline stations to adopt the new trend and equip their stations with EV charging stations. However, since most of the electricity generated in different parts of the world still comes from coal-fired power plants, greening the world will take much more than green cars. In an effort to design a gasoline station that is both green and trendy

in Europe, design firm Geotectura has unveiled a station dubbed Green Gasoline. Designed in association with Malka Architects, the unique station will harvest renewable energy and will feature recharge poles for next-generation of electric vehicles. The station will also feature a service area and a café, both of which will be below ground leaving the horizon unblocked. Solar and wind energy will be harvested to power the station and electric vehicles. Via: Geotectura
