Brusaw solar panels.

Scott and julie brusaw want to replace traditional asphalt and concrete with impact resistant solar panels that do double duty as a road surface and an energy source. The brusaw s solar panels turn sunlight into electricity and also power their own built in leds for nighttime illumination. He believes the solar powered glass pavers his company makes could transform thousands of miles of pavement into a new energy source. The proposed system would require the development of strong transparent and self cleaning glass with the necessary traction and impact resistance properties at competitive cost.

We have now completed the installation of our new sr4 panels at our pilot site in sandpoint idaho. New more efficient 23 7 up from 17 6 solar cells new glass with an anti glare pedestrian texture new led lights and a new heating system. They envisioned replacing asphalt surfaces with structurally engineered solar panels capable of withstanding vehicular traffic. Other changes from sr3 to sr4 include.
