Yep, a lot of places they are putting solar panels up all over the
parking lots. This has the advantage of shading your car too.

We can place solar collectors above already built land. A mall or Wal

This quote is from today's issue of the New York Times, it's about
a company called BlueWave that has found a way to use the same
land for both farming and solar cell electrical production, and
environmentalists oppose the idea of course:
"/chapters of the Audubon nonprofit environmental organization
have been vocal about the technology’s potential effect on
wildlife. Michelle Manion, the vice president of policy and
advocacy for Mass Audubon (which is not affiliated with the
National Audubon Society), said that while her organization
supported renewable energy, including solar within farming
operations, “we want to maximize the placement of ground-mounted
solar on some of our lands that are the least ecologically
sensitive first.”And there are general concerns that even with
dual-use solar panels, arable land may be lost, though BlueWave
says that the land can be reverted to pure agriculture uses once
the solar leases — typically 20 to 30 years — expire/."
