Utilising power from the suns solar energy has been around for years. We have solar powered watches, calculators and even solar powered houses.
One bright inventor from USA has taken the idea of solar and combined it with a road surface to create what could be the most ingenious idea of our time. Solar Roadways. As well as contributing the countries economy by providing power source that would cover a vast area of land. The solar panels would also contain hundreds of LED’s. These could be turned on at night to show road markings and lanes with no need for any painting. They could show disabled signs, parking bays or even mark out basketball court markings. The possibilites really do blow your mind after watching the video.
