Project Summary
This project will deliver a proof-of-concept for an innovative ‘thermal battery’ road system designed to enhance the resilience of UK transport infrastructure. By capturing wasted solar heat from road surfaces in summer and redeploying it for anti-icing in winter, the system improves year-round safety and extends pavement life. This sustainable, retrofit-capable technology offers a new pathway to decarbonise road maintenance and create a more reliable transport network.
