SALT SPRINKLINGINFRA RED Outdoor heating

Investment costs :

• Initial costs motorway: ca. € 40 - 100 million/km• Outdoor IR-heating: less than 1 %

Operational costs

• Salt spreading: € 0,5 million/run (nationwide)• Several runs/day• Salt not sufficient available during cold winters• Salt spreading not effective with ZOAB• Salt is damaging environment

• Frost has negative influence on bitumen (stimulates ageing)• Loss of aggregates (leading to putholes and damaged windscreens)• Reduction of lifetime road top layer• Extreme high costs for repair• Extra congestion, leading to economic damage

SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONINFRA RED Outdoor heating

LOCAL PRODUCTION OF GREEN ELECTRICITY

• Whole year generation of electricity• Storing electricity during non winter season

by feeding into the grid• Using green electricity in the winter season

ROAD OF THE FUTURE ?INFRA RED Outdoor heating

Infra Red ribbons use green electricity from ‘PV-trees’

Infra Red ribbons for motorways and bicycles paths

Infra Red ribbons for viaducts and tunnels
