"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

This project will include solar panels along the walkway that have temperature sensors and the ability to melt snow. They will also feed back into the grid and offset energy usage by the city of Sandpoint, which draws from metered power in the area. It will also power the pump for the fountain in the square.

"In my mind it’s one of the most underestimated aspects of this project is just how much worldwide public interest there is in Solar Roadways http://www.solarroadways.com/ as a company and their product as an evolution in the industry of sustainability."
