Very cool - Disneyland Paris are investing in #RenewableEnergy. They are covering their main car park with 67,500 #solar panels which will generate roughly 31GWh of electricity annually.

@TomRaftery that's before or after the French made ita legal requirement to cover car parks with solar?

@brrbrr before

@TomRaftery not an inconsiderable investment. Disneyland Paris apparently made about 22M$ profit last year, and I would guess that's an investment of around 27M€ for the setup.

@brrbrr I have no idea how much the investment would have been - and remember, they likely received some subventions towards it. But, yes you are correct, it would have still been a considerable investment
