On 22 December 2016, France opened 1 km of road in Tourouvre-au-Perche, Normandy, paved with 2,880 photovoltaic panels. At a cost of about 5 million euros, it is expected to carry around 2,000 vehicles each day. It will be tested over the next two years to see if the solar-powered road can provide enough electricity to power the street lamps in Tourouvre-au-Perche.
