Source: California Landmark. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Certification, nationally accepted benchmark for the construction and operation of high-performance green buildings.
The soaring canopy with its thousands of triangles was inspired by California roadside architecture. Its skin is embedded with 90 solar panels that produce 15,000 kWh of electricity to power the station, cut costs and reduce annual CO2 emissions by 2½ tons.
I feel this is just a fantastic example of design and craftsmanship. One of the first examples of a reason to use solar panels as well since Gas stations stay open longer than many other places need to be.
