Abstract:This report summarizes a Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) peer exchange that was held on July 11-12, 2017 at the U.S. Department of Transportation Volpe Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts. 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). This report summarizes the presentations and discussions at the peer exchange. Presenters from State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) discussed existing and planned solar energy projects in highway ROWs in their respective states. Participants also discussed challenges and lessons learned from these projects. The peer exchange included a site visit to Massachusetts DOT solar energy projects along Interstate 90 in Framingham and Hopkinton, MA. Appendix A lists the peer exchange participants, and Appendix B provides the agenda.
