As evident by the Illinois Climate Action Plan, the university is taking unprecedented leaps and bounds towards a zero emissions campus by 2050. With this in mind, the implementation of clean, renewable energy sources is a priority in achieving this goal. One such energy source comes from Solar Roadways Solar Panels. These solar panels, situated on Green street between Wright and Matthews, can generate 847,731 kWh per year. To make a comparison, Illini Union, ranked 9th in energy consumption of all buildings on campus, consumes 1,356,340 kWh per year in electricity. This means the 6000 square meters of road north of the Union can facilitate over 60% of the buildings energy needs every year. Along with Solar Roadways, other alternative energy sources were taken into consideration. Solar canopies, implemented above parking spaces, can serve a dual purpose as both a source of solar energy and as coverage parking. If a solar canopy were constructed on lot B1, located by Grainger Library, can produce 1,307,455 kWh per year, with an equivalent area covered as the Solar Roadways solar panels. The final alternative energy source comes from piezoelectric floor tiles.

  • Investigating the Impact of Solar Highways on Driver's Safety And
    Investigating the Impact of Solar Highways on Driver’s Safety and Road Maintenance by Navaneeth K. Ramesh Thesis Submitted to the Department of Engineering Colorado State University – Pueblo In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Completed on 1st April, 2014 Abstract Navaneeth K. Ramesh for the degree of Master of Science in Industrial and Systems Engineering presented on 1st April, 2014. Investigating the Impact of Solar Highways on Driver’s Safety and Road Maintenance Abstract approved: ___________________ Ananda Paudel, Ph.D. Effective utilization of vacant areas across highways could produce a significant amount of electricity from photovoltaic systems. The space available in the highway right-of-way (ROW) provides an opportunity for the solar PV system deployment. However, this is only feasible if it can be done in a manner that does not interfere with the operation and maintenance of the highway and does not create an unacceptable risk to the user. Potential impacts those are associated with solar highway that should not compromise risk of safety of the travelling people, road management crew and road management. There is a need on impact studies for Departments of Transportation (DOT) for considering ROW use for solar energy generation using ground mounted solar array systems. The objective of this thesis is to perform an impact analysis through case studies and identify the hazards. An evaluation matrix is developed based on several findings from literature, experimentation, site visits and personnel communication. The outcome in this study will facilitate PV deployment related decision process along with relevant mitigation strategies.

Supervisor in Afcons, Civil Engineer, Aliah University, West Bengal, India ABSTRACT Construction of highway with bitumen and concrete are the most acceptable materials till now. These roads have a lack of maintaining their physical properties till design life. We found holes in the roads everywhere after the rainy season due to heavy load transport vehicles. This unacceptable hole causes comfort, accidents, vehicular damage etc. So the next level of road construction came out as the Solar Roadway construction. These roads are very comfortable, accidental damages are very low, water resistant, electricity generator, smart and with proper physical characteristics of general roads. But this road needs special rigid concrete pavement. The cost of laying the solar roadway is thus very expensive as we have to withdraw all the road materials previously constructed and reconstruct the solar roadway pavement. And the time requirement is very high in this reconstruction of road pavement. So I have taken this project “Future Solar Roadway on Traditional Road”. This project will help us to construct the solar road on traditional concrete or asphalt roads with very low cost and less time of construction. The new type of road surface will give facilities same as the proposed special solar road. Keyword: Future, Solar, Road, Construction, Free Low-Cost Energy, Smart Way, Safer Road, Digital World.
