Makes you wonder why grocery stores don't already offer this? Many of them already have gas stations and a store app and massive parking lots. Seems like it would be an easy way to get additional revenue while providing a service people would use at a location they're going to be at anyway.

There’s a local grocery store on Martha’s Vineyard in MA that has covered a large part of their parking lot with solar panels and has a handful of EV chargers in the shaded parking spaces. Seems like a no-brainer to me.

I went somewhere that had a setup like that, shaded parking with solar panels ontop, and they had level 2 EV chargers, but they weren't under the canopy, they were in the full sun :(
