Abstract:Operating safe and reliable transportation networks costs money. Frequently, State Departments of Transportation (SDOTs) are under pressure to do more with less. Many SDOTs are using State-owned property to install renewable energy resources such as solar panels or wind turbines in the highway right-of-way (ROW). This can reduce electricity costs for lighting roads and powering maintenance buildings through net metering.
