I’d love to see better off-the-shelf solar purgolas, gazebos and other shade generating buildings like that (partial shade greenhouses, maybe?).

The backside of solar panels are actually quite pretty, and provide shade + partial rain barriers.

This would open up more avenues to passive cooling and also reduce the lock-step replacement of the house’s roof with solar panel installation .

This is a fantastic idea which I also recently had. Doing prelim research into how to turn something like this into a side business.
