Many years, too many I would say (5 specifically) to a stretch of road barely 1 kilometer long for the world's first solar road stretch. This stretch of road "paved" with solar panels occupies a space of 2.800 square meters in Normandy, and despite being something that could be well seen by all of us who live on this planet to conserve and care for the environment with clean energy, Ecologists have criticized the total cost of this work, which amounts to 5 million euros ...
The Minister of the Environment, Ségolène Royal, has been in charge of inaugurating this section of road that will light the public lighting of a town of 5.000 inhabitants and at the inauguration she has declared that this type of solar panels are specially designed and manufactured to support the weight of any vehicle that passes overhead, including buses, trucks, etc., in addition to guarantee tire adherence even when the day turns rainy.
The truth is that leaving aside some details of the construction, price and others, It seems to us a really interesting work as well as too long in terms of execution time taking into account the distance covered by this section that leads to the Norman town of Tourouvre-au-Perche. If they said to install more solar panels on the asphalt for the number of kilometers of roads that we have in the world, we would never finish. In any case, the important thing is that this type of work is spread throughout the world and costs are reduced, etc.
