To reduce the dependency of fossil fuels and greenhouse effect, the authors have proposed a novel solar-road and soil-regenerator hybrid energy system (SRSRHES), which utilizes a combination of Photovoltaic-Thermal (PVT) and soil heat storage technologies on the roadways. Design parameters and meteo...
