Solar panels able to produce energy for 20 households for a year have been installed at a car park in Leicester.

Two canopies with about 360 sqm of solar panels have been put in Newarke Street car park by Leicester City Council, which says the move will make carbon savings of about 19 tonnes.

The 拢267,400 costs came from the authority and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). It comes as the council tries to save money and cut energy costs.

Adam Clarke, deputy city mayor for climate, economy and culture explains to Summaya Mughal the benefits of installing solar panels in available spaces.
