Storing the sun’s energy underground could help keep Canada’s roads ice-free in the winter months as a safer and cheaper alternative to plows and salt.

    Another added benefit is that it would also make roads lasts longer if water doesn’t have a chance to infiltrate and expand into ice within the asphalt/concrete.

      Yeah, it should level out the temperature too, so the minimums are higher and maximums are lower regardless of freeze/thaw.
