The State of Missouri, USA faces significant challenges related to environmental quality, changes in energy markets, and evolving public interests. Missouri has a strong foundation suitable for leadership in alternative energy sources, including industrial, governmental, and academic expertise.
Missouri Department of Transport (MoDOT) has committed to developing an efficient roadmap to successfully make the critical transition to the use of alternative energy sources. To better address this commitment and deliver tangible “Environmentally Responsible” results, MoDOT aims to develop applicable strategies to implement alternative energy in various areas.
In that regard, the objective of the attached report was to investigate environmentally friendly alternative energy sources that could be used by MoDOT in various areas, and to develop applicable and sustainable strategies to implement those energy sources.
This report will be useful to local government as a case study investigation of alternative energy resources from a country with significantly cheaper petrol costs than Australia.
