Abstract

<p>Planphoria will research, define and develp methods to turn our nation's roadways into a giant energy collection and transference system that produces low cost electrical energy close to point of use.&nbsp; Though roadway environmental conditions change, and different roadway requirements vastly differ from the requirements of other roadways, we will determine the feasibility of this concept by leading and managing a Research and Development effort to determine how roadways may be improved using photo-voltaic, and piezoelectric paving methods and electricity generation using thermal differential engines.&nbsp; Planphoria believes that these methods can be integrated into new and exisiting roadway systems (independently or collectively) as environmental conditions dictate, to produce a substantial electrical current.</p>
