"Bright Solutions: Harnessing Solar Energy Through Snow Fences and Noise Walls" was hosted on Friday, November 19, 2021.

The webinar shares findings from a recently completed MnDOT research study, including:
• Public opinion for harnessing power using right-of-way structures
• Structural design of solar noise barriers and snow fences
• Safety impacts such as noise reduction, limiting snowdrift, glare, and crash impacts
• Cost-benefit of generating usable energy
• Next steps

Presenters: Mijia Yang and Yao Yu, Principal Investigators, North Dakota State University
