Road-based solar system for production of hydrogen and electricity

A system for producing energy on transportation routes, said system comprising:

• at least one Photovoltaic Unit (PVU), comprising at least one photo-voltaic panel for converting solar energy to electrical energy;
• at least one Hydrogen Production Unit (HPU), comprising an electrolyzer for converting said electrical energy to hydrogen by water hydrolysis;
• at least one pipe for at least one of:
• storing, transporting, supplying hydrogen, and any combination thereof produced by said HPU;
• at least one Hydrogen Conversion Unit (HCU), comprising at least one fuel cell for producing electricity from said hydrogen;
• an AC electric grid connected to for transmitting said electricity generated by said at least one PVU and produced by the HCU;
• a DC grid interconnecting the PVU, HCU and electricity conversion unit (ECU);
• at least one ECU, comprising at least one bidirectional invertor for converting DC electricity input from said PVU and produced by the HCU and outputting AC power to the AC grid, and for converting AC power input from the AC grid to DC power output to the DC grid
• wherein said system is positioned above, adjacent to or on a transportation network.
