Solar power expansion: Potential along f • Table.Briefings

As a study commissioned by the Federal Ministry of Transport shows, many areas along federal highways could be used to expand photovoltaics. The focus is particularly on roadsides.

Photovoltaic systems with an output of 50 gigawatts could be installed along German freeways and federal highways. This is the result of a potential analysis presented on Tuesday by the Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt) on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport Affairs (BMDV). It covers a total of around 250,000 fundamentally suitable areas.
