• Abstract:
  This report summarizes a Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) peer exchange that was held on September 25-26, 2018 at the Maryland Department of Transportation headquarters in Hanover, Maryland. The purpose of the peer exchange was to bring together practitioners to discuss issues related to and approaches for accommodating renewable energy technologies in highway rights-of-way (ROWs) and on other State department of transportation (DOT) properties. The meeting was the fourth in a series of four FHWA peer exchanges convened between June 2017 and September 2018 on the topic. This report summarizes the presentations and discussions at the peer exchange. Presenters from State DOTs discussed existing and planned DOT renewable energy projects in their respective States. Participants also discussed challenges and lessons learned from these projects. The peer exchange included a site visit to solar canopies that Maryland DOT deployed on a parking deck at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI).
