How can cutting grass on the roadside help power the very vehicles that maintain our highways, while also slashing carbon emissions?

The Live Labs 2 project has been working on seven real-world trials shaping the roads of tomorrow — from street lighting alternatives to circular biofuel solutions — helping turn innovation into business as usual.
