Supporting the implementation of renewable energy technologies in the road infrastructure (ENROAD)

Achieving 2030 targets of reduction of emissions and increase of energy generation from renewable sources require of the participation of the sectors with a greater impact on the environment, those highly contributing to the climate change. Transportation plays a key role for the economic and social transformation of the society, but it is also responsible for a large part of EU emissions. As main stakeholders, the commitment of National Road Administrations (NRAs) is necessary to meet the challenge. To this end, installating renewable energy systems in the lands and assets they own might be a great step towards the mitigation of the environmental impact of roads. The ENROAD Project is aimed at helping in the decision-making, not only from the perspective of the technical and financial implications, but also considering the regulatory barriers that might limit their implementation.
