PowerPlant

A democratic solar infrastructure

In our digital world, electricity is as essential as water. So why is electricity not available everywhere in public spaces? Power Plant addresses this problem by offering a solution that can be installed on top of existing infrastructure in the urban landscape. Using solar cells in combination with fluorescent acrylic makes the charging station not a visual obstacle in the city but a new, emblematic piece of lively urban culture. The charging stations are installed in quieter urban spaces, such as squares or parks. These spots are determined by users that vote in a network / app.
