Now a days, the globalized world, highway is the means to join countries, cities, towns etc. In recent years all the old technologies changed into new technology like fridge, TV, Washing Machine, cooler etc. so that the all the things are changed but highways are not changed. The "Smart Highway" is the concept to make highway roads smarter, safer, and more energy efficient for generating electricity using solar energy, vibration energy, wind energy, for charging the vehicles using these energies, for lighting, and for monitoring the condition of the road. The vehicles moving on roads generates large amount of energy in form of vibration that is completely wasted additionally they produce greenhouse gases which ultimately leads to global warming and depletes ozone layer. So, there is a need to make some revolutionary changes in concept of highways. We can use the vibration energy produced by vehicles that is converted into electricity. Similarly, by using different techniques, wind energy, solar energy and other type of green energies produced on highway are also converted into electricity. So, in this paper we are trying to throw some light on techniques of utilizing green energy on highway in fruitful manner.
