Federal Highway Administration Requirements for Renewable Energy Projects in Highway Right-of-Way
This quick guide is intended to point FHWA Division Offices and State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) to the relevant FHWA requirements.
Vermont Agency of Transportation Solar Plan
The Vermont Agency of Transportation Solar Development Plan provides an overview for the agency, potential partners, stakeholders, and the general public of why the agency should invest in solar photovoltaics (PV), and the process of developing solar PV projects on VTrans properties and highway right-of-way (ROW).
The Ray Solar Highway Project: Assessment of Solar Potential Installed in ROWs Across the United States
This report and related documents, data products, and web tool are meant to be used as a resource for State DOTs and other interested parties in the selection of right-of-way (ROW) sites with potential for solar photovoltaic (PV) development.
Solar Highway Program: From Concept to Reality
This is a guidebook based on Oregon Department of Transportation for other states pursuing development of solar photovoltaic systems in the highway right-of-way.
Roadside Renewables: Exploring Alternative Uses of Highway Right-of-Way to Reduce Costs
The U.S. Department of Transportation provides case studies on states that are installing solar panels in the right-of-way.
Renewable Energy Generation in the Highway Right-of-Way
State Departments of Transportation (SDOTs) are increasingly exploring the use of highway right-of-way (ROW) to accommodate renewable energy technologies. This paper provides information on potential business models, state rules, regulations, and policies, and example projects for energy generation in the ROW.
Free Energy Solar Highway Program
The Free Energy Solar Highway Program research project identified best practices nationally and determined the financial feasibility of generating solar power on New Mexico DOT property at the lowest possible cost.
