Colas and BAM Royal Group, a Dutch construction company, have commissioned two bicycle paths equipped with Wattway photovoltaic surfacing in the Netherlands.

With a surface area of 1,000 m² each, they were commissioned by the provinces of Brabant-Septentrional and Holland-Septentrional. This is the first project of this scale in the country.

The fruit of Colas R&D in partnership with the French National Solar Energy Institute (CEA-INES), Wattway photovoltaic pavement technology has reached an advanced stage of maturity, paving the way for its commercialization from 2019.

"This unique experience in the circulatory photovoltaic pavement market enables us to continue bringing technological and practical advances to improve the lifespan of our installations and increase their competitiveness," commented Laurent Le Boulc'h, Executive Vice President, Intelligent and Sustainable Infrastructures and Mobility at Colas.
