Solar Power at Disneyland

This may be one of the coolest stories I've read in a while (which may or may not be because I've been avoiding online news outlets). Still -- Disney just finished installing a solar power system on top of Radiator Springs Racers in the California Adventure park in Disneyland. According to the Disney Parks Blog,

...[the solar power system] uses the power of the sun to generate electricity for Disney California Adventure park — an amount equivalent to the energy used to power 100 Anaheim homes each year.
The system features more than 1,400 high-efficiency solar panels, and is the first of its kind at the Disneyland Resort to help power an attraction. The solar panels are part of an ongoing commitment to develop and implement environmentally responsible practices at the Disneyland Resort.
Way to go, Disney! I can only imagine how much "everything" goes in to running those parks -- if there's a way to go green even a little bit, then it's a step in the right direction.

Check out a video of the installation below:
