Wind-drive ROTAFLECTOR

ROTAFLECTOR fits securely on the top of traffic cones and can replace up to 50% of road danger lamps (every other lamp) in straight line delineation, claims its manufacturer. The wind-driven rotating reflective device has been fully tested at TRL [UK's Transport Research Laboratory] and approved for use on the network by the UK Highways Agency and the Department for Transport. Requiring no batteries, the ROTAFLECTOR is made from recycled materials and is totally recyclable itself.

    Peter Harrop, chairman of independent research and consultancy IDTechEx, considers arguments in favour of solar roads. Nowadays a major trend is the move to off-grid clean energy created by “energy harvesting” to produce electricity where it is needed. This is more controllable and increasingly at lower cost than grid power or diesel gensets, cleaner and often less subject to interruption. It is taking new forms as revealed in the IDTechEx Research report, “High Power Energy Harvesting 2016-2026”.
