Last week, France announced that the country will pave 621
miles of road with solar panels over the next five years, with the goal
of providing cheap, renewable energy to five million people.
Called “the Wattway,” the roads will be built through joint
efforts with the French road-building company Colas and the
National Institute of Solar Energy. The company spent the last five
years developing solar panels that are only about a quarter of an inch
thick and are strong enough to stand up to heavy highway traffic
without breaking or making the roads more slippery. The panels are
also designed so that they can be installed directly on top of existing
roadways, making them relatively cheap and easy to install.
France isn’t the first country to kick around the idea of paving
its roads with solar panels. In November 2015, the Netherlands
completed a 229-foot-long bike path paved with solar panels as a test
for future projects. However, this is the first time a panel has been
designed to be laid directly on top of existing roads and the first
project to install the panels on public highways.
Q3: What was France’s purpose of constructing the Wattway?
