Project Description & Impact:

Since Troy, NY reaches below freezing temperatures and sometimes students need to wait a bit for the shuttle. We decided as a team to design a solar panel bus stop that will supply power to a heated seat for warmth and outlets for those that need to charge their devices.

The local project we are planning is installing a solar panel at one of our bus stops to provide power to devices that will be installed.
