Project description
Our project aims to combine the needs for sustainable modes of energy production and reducing noise pollution in urban areas. While most current noise barriers alongside highways are walls, our noise barriers are modular, that is, they allow the noise barriers to be easily assembled onsite and accessible to installers—a need for many highways and freeways in urban centers. The modular aspect of our barriers also seeks to provide noise mitigation while being easily reparable, low maintenance, and modular. The goal of our project is to combine noise barriers with solar panels for harvesting solar energy, working to address the need to mitigate noise pollution while also working to build a more sustainable world.
