In January 2022, Solar Roadways received both FCC (US) and ISED (Canada) approval! The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) regulates interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable in the US. The ISED does the same in Canada. Our Solar Road Panels have small internal radios.

The Solar Road Panel The heart of Solar Roadways is the Solar Road Panel. Hexagon in shape, this solar panel contains an onboard microprocessor which controls heating elements (to help prevent snow/ice accumulation), LEDs (to illuminate road lines, create verbiage, graphics, etc.), and communicates with other panels and vehicles wirelessly.
FAQ – Introduction - Solar Roadways
What are Solar Roadways? Solar Roadways is first and foremost a multi-featured, modern, modular intelligent infrastructure product which also produces clean energy in places heretofore impossible. What abbreviations do you use: SR for Solar Roadways and …
Heating - Solar Roadways
Solar Roadways® panels have an integrated heating component. The heating system in Solar Roadways® maintains a temperature above freezing. This keeps the road free of snow and ice. Since more than 70% of the U.S. population lives in snowy regions, this system is crucial to maintain safe road conditions. The implementation of a heated roadway ...

The hexagonal panels are quite a work of art and will dramatically beautify roads, parking lots, walkways, patios, bike paths, etc. Solar Roadways® chose the hexagonal shape for extra stability and flexibility in installing curves, hills, and odd shaped installations. We have found that people love the aesthetics of the hexagon as well.

Phase II Research - Solar Roadways
In the Solar Cells section, it was learned that a micro-inverter recorded 52397Wh from the output of four hexagon Solar Road Panels over a six-month period. Each full size hexagon panel measures four square feet, so there would be 15,840 panels per lane mile using a 12-foot wide lane. If each four of these produced 52397Wh in six months, then ...

At this northern position (48.19 degrees North) the optimal solar gain angle for solar panels is 72 degrees. By contrast Brownsville, Texas would want to angle their solar panels at 26 degrees. So southern roads will naturally produce much more electricity than their northern counterparts as solar intensity maps show.
The Road – Our Journey - Solar Roadways
The Solar Roadways® journey began on an ordinary day as most life changing adventures do. Scott and Julie had known each other since they were small children, in southern California in the 1960’s when roads and highways looked, well – just like they do today!
