The parking meter gets its energy from the Sun but those seeking to park their car must still pay. Interestingly the meter is on the south side of a tall building & the cells also face south so it would only be for a few hours late on a Summer afternoon that it would ever get direct sunlight.
Type of system: Photovoltaic (electrical)
