Solar Driveways, Pavements, Floors
Green on Green
Solar Charging
From Europe, there's a new technology first.
A European Union funded company, Platio
of Budapest, Hungary, has just installed
the world's first solar driveway for
residential use. The technology and
environmental concern behind this new
green energy technology is extraordinary.
Pavers
The system consists of interlocking units
called Patio Solar pavers. Each paver
is made from 400 recycled PET
plastic bottles. According to Platio, the
pavers are more durable than concrete.
Multi-Functional
You can use the solar driveway pavers
for energy to power your electric car.
Or the energy generated by the driveway
can be fed back into your home's power
network to provide electricity to your
home. The company claims a
20 square meter driveway will cover
the yearly energy consumption for the
average residential property.
The pavers come in four colors
and are anti-slip so you can walk
on them.
Up and Running in Hungary
This new tech is up and running in Hungary.
In Budapest, a 50 foot solar sidewalk is powering
an EV charging station. It on benches
in an urban square to power digital boxes
for cellphone users to recharge their phones.
And it's powering streetlights.
Sustainable Architecture
The company calls their solar pavements
sustainable architecture. It's space
saving, composed of recycled materials
and they say it's of "low operational
complexity." It can be installed on a
driveway, pavement, around office
buildings and apartment complexes, on
balconies, terraces and patios. The
company was founded by three young
engineers. They're currently looking
for "resellers" in Europe and elsewhere.
No indication on their website about
what installation of the product costs.
