More productively, if you are worried about this sort of thing, you can recover this amount of energy most likely today if you Google the term "hypermiling", read up, think, and then don't do anything stupid but tweak your driving style with what you read. Bonus, you can do this with any type of car, including whatever it is you are driving now.
This will cut your energy usage by wildly more than anything this solar panel can do.
However, please let me re-iterate, don't do anything stupid. That term will lead you to some stupid things to save trivial amounts of energy.
- dmix 7y agoAs long as it doesn't involve going 5km/hr down an offramp hill because you don't have to use gas but there's a massive gap in front of you and a hundred cars behind you forced to go your speed (which is far more challenging at low speeds, especially with a standard vehicle like mine). It's a really selfish and inefficent move IMO and I see it all the time in the city from a small group of people. If you want to save gas go into neutral and go as fast as everyone else or don't do it unless you're alone.
