World's First Solar Panel Road
France has opened what it claims to be the world’s first solar panel road.
A 1km (0.6-mile) route covered with 2,800 sq m of electricity-generating panels was inaugurated.
It cost €5m (£4.2m) to construct and will be used by about 2,000 motorists a day during a two-year test period to establish if it can generate enough energy to power street lighting in the village of 3,400 residents.
