Staff writer Jackie Noblett dropped by New England Business Day to talk about using pavement as an energy source. Researchers at UMass Amherst and WPI, along with Acton-based materials company Novotech, are developing technology that could take heat captured by asphalt and use it to generate hot water or steam, which could in turn be used to generate power.
The technology could also help cool cities down, which would be nice to have later on this afternoon.
