The design institute of TBEA Sunoasis has completed the planning scheme of the first PV + highway full-scene typical application demonstration project in China. The project is located in a service area along a highway, with a total planned capacity of 3.5 MW. It is designed with a self-generation and self-consumption operation mode, which can meet the daily electricity demand of the infrastructures in the service area. After completion, it can generate 4200 MWh of electricity per year, which is equivalent to an annual saving of 1377.6t of standard coal (based on the average standard coal consumption of 320g/kWh) compared with thermal power of the same capacity, and correspondingly reduce the emission of various air pollutants per year, including about 126t of sulfur dioxide (SO2), 4187.4t of carbon dioxide (CO2) and 63t of nitrogen oxides (NOx).

PV + Highway is intended to integrate PV power generation technology with the highway system, to use the highways, shoulders, ramps, isolation zones and other own space in the highway system, as well as the space of building roofs, parking sheds, walls and other facilities in service area for arrangement and installation of PV power generation system. The clean energy generated will be applied to the lighting and ventilation facilities of bridges and tunnels, the power facilities in service areas and other highway systems or output to the grid system.
