At first I thought this was silly. But on reflection, it seems like a great idea - why not make your solar grid more attractive? Imagine flying over that happy panda and the free publicity for solar energy. You'd probably never notice a rectangular grid, but this sounds like the kind of thing the pilot would tell you to look at.

Australia should build a kangaroo shaped one. Or, even better, a koala!
