The word "solar" alone is a synonym for "Diesel Fuel" in some countries
and can cause confusion. I'd advise using solar_equipment or
solar_devices instead.

I believe the correct expression is photovoltaic (which would exclude
hot water generation etc though).

The term photovoltaic refers to the mechanism used by certain solar devices
to generate electricity. In this case, it describes a device that is using
sunlight to create electricity, i.e., a photovoltaic panel. I'm asking
about a shop that sells photovoltaic panels along with related alternative

Hi all,
I recently completed my draft for power transformer extension proposal
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Transformer_extension_proposal
It introduces tags but no replacement of previously reviewed ones.
Main adds are as follow:
voltage:primary
voltage:secondary
winding
I'm no expert but it appears the expression "photovoltaic" may exclude a
bit too much. There are solar power generation technologies which are
not based on photovoltaic cells. See this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_Stirling_engine
However, for home or small scale use, I suspect phot
If we're talking about renewable energy in general, then even
solar_equipment is too limiting. Wind turbines are not solar equipment.
Maybe shop=renewable_energy_equipment ?

Quite right, SwiftFast. The value you suggest tells the story better.

We have already 'generator:source' tag.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:power%3Dgenerator
So how about to use 'shop=generator' ?
'shop=generator' + 'generator:source=solar' means solar power generator
seller. And we can specify a wind turbine seller also.

@tomoya: I think there would be numerous valid objections to using the
generator:source tag that way. IMO it is clearly designed to describe a
power generating facility. The shop is not generating electricity; it is
selling solar equipment that might be used in a generating facility but it
does not

nice extension. I will go with you
