Heat-seeking sheep pave way for roads that generate energy Date: Thursday, June 22 @ 05:29:02 PDT Topic: Hydrocarbon Alternatives
Roads and driveways could be turned into huge solar panels to heat houses and offices using an invention inspired by sheep on the west coast of Scotland.
An Ullapool company will tomorrow install the first road energy system in the UK in its own car park. The system takes advantage of heat absorbed by tarmac, to convert roads and other tarred areas into solar panels.
