May I injection another complication: In many jurisdictions the width available to the moving traffic is defined by white lines on the tarmac creating an additional safety/buffer zone between the marked parking spaces and the flowing traffic. On Tue, 29 Sep 2020, 12:52 Pieter Vander Vennet,

Hey Alex, First of all, I didn't consult the community for this project, I just wanted to get it rolling. We pondered a long time about how to measure for our local situation, not about what would be the most appropriate tag for use worldwide. Sorry for that and again, if in these discussions a

Hi Lukas, You do realise that all electricity is the same, irrespective of how it is generated? The "greenness" or otherwise is not determined by the connection, but by the subscription/contract that the consumer has with their supplier. UNLESS they have a standalone generating capability,

The main problem is the ground truth. A mapper cannot verify the supply contracts. The only exception could be the presence of a generator on the premises. Virus-free. www.avast.com

Hi Colin, I agree that while a few suppliers source all of their electricity from renewable sources, most simply add a surcharge which is used to fund the growth of renewable energy infrastructure and price the electricity as if it were coming from solely renewable energy sources. I'm working
