Paris - Lyon highway is roughly 460 Kilometres long and good for 32,000 SolarBotanic trees. With an annual electricity output of more than 193 MW, France could reduce its carbon footprint by 145 thousand tons of CO2 per year and produce enough electricity to power over 26,000 average size homes.

Australia

Adelaide - Perth highway is roughly 2700 Kilometres long and good for 189,000 SolarBotanic trees. With an annual electricity output of more than 1.2 GW, Australia could reduce its carbon footprint by more than 900 thousand tons of CO2 per year and produce enough electricity to power over 118,000 average size homes.

England

The M25 ring road which circumnavigates London is 180 kilometres long and is good for 13,000 SolarBotanic trees. With an annual electricity output of more than 65 MW, England could reduce its carbon footprint by more than 48 thousand tons of CO2 per year and produce enough electricity to power over 10,000 average size homes.

The company retains patents and has patents pending covering Biomimicry,Nanoleaf Technology, Energy transfer materials and process, and has confirmed proof of concept criteria as required by investor groups.

www.solarbotanic.com is interested in talking to potential JV partners who have the required sector expertise and funding to take this project from the R&D phase to full commercialization, the company is also looking for agents and distributors in the Middle East and Asia.
