4 FAQs about High-efficiency pv distributions for highways

What is a highway photovoltaic system?

Schematic diagram of the highway photovoltaics (PV) system. Roofing highways with solar panels generates green electricity that is delivered to the grid to replace the electricity from fossil fuels, thereby contributing to CO 2 e emission reductions.

Is Highway PV economically feasible?

We analyze the economic feasibility of developing highway PV worldwide based on LCOE and discover conspicuous spatial variability (Figure 2c). The global LCOE values range from US$44 to US$380 MWh −1, with the majority (56%) in the range of US$60–120 MWh −1 (Figure 2d).

How much electricity does a highway PV system generate a year?

Our analysis reveals that globally deploying highway PV systems across existing highway networks has the potential to generate 17,578 TWh of electricity annually, offsetting nearly 28% of concurrent global carbon emissions.

What is Highway PV & how will it impact the world?

Achieving the full highway PV potential could offset 28.78% (28.21%–29.1%) of the global total carbon emissions in 2018, prevent approximately 0.15 million road traffic deaths, and reduce US$0.43 ± 0.16 trillion socio-economic burdens per year. Highway PV projects could bring a net return of about US$14.42 ± 4.04 trillion over a 25-year lifetime.
