China Photovoltaic | What is Photovoltaic + Highway?

China's push towards green and low-carbon transportation includes innovative "photovoltaic + highway" projects integrating solar energy systems with highway infrastructure. By utilizing idle land along highways for photovoltaic installations, these projects promote clean energy production and consumption within the transportation system. The benefits range from land resource efficiency and reduced carbon emissions to enhanced energy self-sufficiency and economic development. The model not only drives the convergence of transportation and energy sectors but also signifies a sustainable approach towards green transportation. With varied applications such as photovoltaic slopes, service areas, sound barriers, and monitoring systems, photovoltaic highways offer a promising pathway towards a greener transport ecosystem in China.
