The solar powered bus stop station concept by Johann Paquelier is designed to generate power to illuminate itself once it gets dark. The sustainable shelter is built for both urban and suburban areas to provide public transportation users a comfortable waiting area. The roof of the bus shelter will have LED lights which will be powered by outer solar panels.
The solar powered bus stop also has two different types of seating; wood and metal, both with handle bars to making sitting more comfortably for the disabled and elderly.
