Summary

The project has developed SNOWLESS, an automated snow melting solution that uses heating ribbons embedded in pavements. This environmentally friendly technology responds quickly to snow and ice, reducing operational costs and improving safety on roads and pedestrian areas.

Objective

Winter conditions on roads cause traffic delays that cost 1% of EU GDP and 1,000 causalities annually.

Similarly, snow fall causes air traffic disturbance that can cost €57.3M per storm.

For pedestrians it a major health issue as an increase of 25% increase in hospitalization and 33% rise in cases of hip fractures is observed during winter season.

Current solutions suffer from many shortcomings.

The most popular, plowing and salting, is manual, has low response times, damages traffic surfaces, v…
