Solar Roads
September 2nd, 2008 by john
Have read a couple of articles recently that presented ideas for using our road networks as ways to harness the sun’s energy.
The first article, in Inhabitat, talked about a solution from Australian company Going Solar. Their idea combines solar panels with a sound barrier along the sides of freeways that pass through residential areas. This cuts the noise level in the houses, while at the same time supplying them with electricity.
