The Luckie Street Solar Project is a parking lot covered in solar panels located in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The panels were built as a demonstration project to showcase the benefits of solar power.

The parking lot is owned by American medial mogul Ted Turner, and the panels provide power for the nearby office building and restaurant, both owned by Turner. Power saved by the project means that an estimated 82 metric tons of CO2 emissions will not enter into the atmosphere annually, the equivalent of 9,209 gallons of gasoline.
