The Transport Minister has just announced the new payment structure for the Blata l-Bajda park-and-ride service.

He also said the government was losing €700,000 a year to run the system.

But the wasteland we have at Blata l-Bajda can easily be turned into a solar grove which should be generating enough electricity to give the government not only a handsome profit but will give the client using the car park shade for his car.

Since we have also been talking lately about the amount of rainwater which goes to waste, we can even store the water which falls on the roof of these solar panels. Future clients can also make use of the generated electricity to charge their electric cars.

So we have a win-win situation which can never go wrong. Above is a picture of a car park in California. How different does it look from our Blata l-Bajda car park?
