- 3. INTRODUCTION Solar roadwaysis a modular system of specially engineered solar panels that can be walked and driven upon. Solar roadways technology will replace all current petroleum based asphalt roads, parking lots, and driveways. Solar roadways technology is power generation capacity demonstrates the base load viability of renewable energy sources.

- 7. SOLAR ENERGY Solar energyis the light and radiant heat from the sun that influences Earth’s climate and weather and sustains life. By using this energy electricity can be produced with help of solar technology. Solar technologies are broadly characterized as: Active solar technology Passive solar technology Photovoltaic cell:- Photovoltaic cells are used to convert solar energy directly into electricity using semiconductors. This is active type of solar technology.
- 8. SOLAR ROADWAYS Asolar roadway is a road surface that generates electricity by solar power photovoltaic cells embedded below a tough transparent surface which provides sufficient traction. Solar Road Construction :- A solar roadways consist of three layer: Road surface layer / glass layer Electronic layer Base plate layer
- 9. ROAD SURFACE LAYER/ GLASS LAYER ELECTRONIC LAYER It is transparent with high strength, it is rough enough to provide sufficient traction, yet still passes sunlight through to the solar collector cells embedded within, along with LED’s and a heating element. It contains photovoltaic cells which absorbs solar energy. It also contains a microprocessor board with support circuitry for sensing loads on the surface and controlling a heating element with a view to reducing or eliminating snow
- 10. BASE PLATE LAYER Whilethe electronic layer collets energy from the sun, it is the base plate layer that distributes that power as well as data signals down the line to all home and business connected to the solar roadways. Feature of solar roads :- It reduces dependence on Fossil Fuels It is environment friendly Matching peak time output with peak time demand It has flexible location
- 11. ILLUMINATED ROADS Manypeople driving their vehicles at night cannot see the road ahead due to oncoming headlight or rain. The solar roadways will have LED’s which will illuminate the lanes. Thus the rate of accidents will be reduced and illumination of roads will add to the aesthetics of the city
- 12. INTELLIGENT HIGHWAY LANESCAPE DESIGN The LED’s can be programmed to show the instruction such as – SLOW, STOP GO SPEED LIMIT, etc. Central control stations will be able to instantly customize the lanes and words on panels as like screen, reducing traffic congestion.

- 14. ROAD SURVEY OFINDIA India has a road network of over 56,03,293 km in 2016 In which national highways and state highways covers 0.05% of total road network. These highway can produce 688.42TWh of electricity according to references when they are surfaced by solar panels. But India needs 1,106TWh of electricity.
- 15. CASE STUDY Solarroadways is a company based in Idaho that is working to prefect and implement the idea of solar panels embedded within road surface, sidewalks and parking lots. The company was started by Scott Brusaw and Julie. Phase 1 prototype: research contract. Phase 2 prototype: solar parking lot.

FIRST SOLAR ROADIN WORLD (FRANCE) IT COVERS 1 KM STRETCH IT IS CALLED AS WATTWAY ELECTRICITY PRODUCES 280MWH ANNUALLYAND WITH A ESTIMATED ELECTRICAL OUTPUT 767 KWH PER DAY SOLAR ROAD IN CHINA IT COVERS 1KM STRETCH IT IS 2 LANE ROAD IT IS ESTIMATE THAT ELECTRICITY PRODUCES 1 MILLION KWH ANNUALLY
- 18. ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES Renewability Life span – 20 to 21 years Road illumination Intelligent highway system Provides electrical power Initial cost is high Maintenance costs is high Need a town planning
- 19. CONCLUSION No moreglobal warming. Safer driving conditions. Far less pollution. No more dependency of foreign oil. Solar roadways are eco-friendly. Solar roads are feasible.
