Solar Powered Circuit

Rookie
Looking through motorsports news today I saw an interesting report about Pocono raceway, the US facility that is hosting the Nascar race today. They have just completed a 25 us acre solar farm that provides 100% of the electrical requirements. When the circuit is not being fully used, the excess power goes to the utility grid and provides enough energy for 1000 homes. Very progressive arrangements.

That is a wonderful idea! There would even be an excuse why the Bahrain Grand Prix should exist at all if F1 brought in ideas like this...
