The Valencia City Council is also finalizing the installation of smart pavement in Benimaclet, Benimàmet and Patraix. It will offer solar charging for personal mobility vehicles.
The installation of the solar trees came out of the Decidim 2020 participatory process. The Valencia City Council awarded the solar tree contract to Eiffage Energía S.L.U. and the smart pavement contract to Sociedad Ibérica de Construcciones Eléctricas S.A.
