Hurricane Resilient Solar Electric Canopy
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Derrick Garland. I am the founder of Terrasol Energy International based in Pitt Meadows BC Canada. I am fundraising to build the first-ever Hurricane resilient solar electric canopy prototype. It is built entirely of sustainable composite materials. The main purpose of building and installing this type of canopy is human survivability after major weather events and to providing electricity for communication, fresh water makers and lighting. The rest of the year it is providing shade and renewable energy to the local grid producing revenue. The Engineering was completed at UBC Okanagan. It has been designed to withstand Category 5 hurricane winds and be completely submersible in salt water. It will not rust or corrode like steel or aluminum.
