Preliminary Study on the Potential of Harvesting Energy from Malaysian Road Pavement

Unused energy occurred at the pavement in the form of solar radiation, vibration and stress have the potential to be converted into more useful energy mainly into electrical energy. It is an alternative way to produce renewable energy source for electricity generation in order to replace the depl...
