They aren't yet common but more are built all the time and they are far from non-existent.
You probably don't realize how many of them there are. Here's a link showing dozens of Solar Canopy projects done by just Lumos Solar. There's dozens more companies across the United States doing these kinds of projects you just don't hear about them. As examples did you know about the the solar canopy parking lots at Dell, Intel, Cincinnati Zoo, and Rutgers University? There's also solar canopies in Omaha, Kansas City, Chicago, and Denver that you probably have never heard of.
Don't feel bad for not knowing about them either; these kinds of project simply aren't newsworthy unless they are tied to some major project or entity.
