Alternative uses of highway rights-of-way: Accommodating renewable energy technologies
C Poe, G Filosa - Transportation research record, 2012 - journals.sagepub.com
In recent years, the capacity, generation, and consumption of energy derived from
renewable sources have grown significantly on a global level. To increase renewable
energy production in the near term, state and local transportation agencies have recently
expressed more interest in installing decentralized renewable energy technologies on
spaces not traditionally considered for energy generation. Many transportation agencies
have demonstrated the viability of utilizing the highway right-of-way (ROW) for decentralized …

In recent years, the US Department of Transportation (US DOT) has sought to better
understand global climate change and the transportation sector's effects on the issue, and
vice versa. The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Act: A Legacy for Users
(SAFETEA-LU) transportation authorization bill provides opportunities for State and Federal
agencies to conduct research on innovative practices that may reduce transportation-related
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and, by extension, the transportation sector's contribution …
