Report Highlights:

Key driving trends:

• Electrification Infrastructure Improvements
• Safety and Improved User Experience
• Renewable Energy Generation

The different smart road technologies detailed:

• With large pushes toward electrification across the automotive sector, smart roads are striving to accommodate and enable widespread adoption of electric vehicles.
• Perhaps the most significant driving factor for smart road technologies is increasing driver and passenger safety while also improving the user experience. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications have yielded driver alerts and road monitoring technologies to aid in safe driving.
• New technologies are also improving more rudimentary road issues.
• Utilizing roads for energy generation along with transport, could bring renewable energy to vast portions of the world’s population.
