Abstract:

This research investigated environmentally friendly alternative energy sources that could be used by the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) in various areas, and developed applicable and sustainable strategies to implement these energy sources. Specifically, the project conducted a thorough investigation of potential alternative energy sources that could be used by MoDOT, identified the various application areas in which the alternative energy may be appropriate, created an appropriate cost-effectiveness and financial feasibility analysis framework as a function of electric utility rates and potential rate increases, as well as analyzed various financing mechanisms such as public-private partnerships, and developed detailed and applicable strategies that will guide the implementation of the selected energy sources based on appropriate technology feasibility analysis, as well as address technological issues and risk mitigation. It is recommended that MoDOT pursue the use of alternative energy sources in four main areas: (1) Wastewater Treatment, (2) Light Emitting Diode (LED) Roadway Lighting, (3) Miscellaneous Energy Savings Projects, and (4) Renewable Solar/Wind Installations.
