“…The integration of jet fan ventilation systems into car park and tunnel ventilation holds substantial promise for advancing the concept of carbon neutrality. These systems have been shown through empirical evidence to exhibit a heightened level of energy efficiency when compared to traditional methods [5,6]. This observation gains even greater significance within the current landscape, characterized by a discernible shift towards the replacement of conventional systems with environmentally conscious alternatives.…”

“…Since the 1970s, gas-discharge lamps, sodium lamps, and high-pressure sodium lamps (HPS) have been passed on until the introduction in 2000s of light-emitting diode lamps (LED). LED lighting systems, especially if solar powered [10], can improve the LCA results of the environmental and human health impacts is useful to understand and improve processes and technologies currently used in the road section to reduce its environmental burdens.…”

“…The most effective ones concern the tunnel lining and the road surface materials. Indeed, self-cleaning lining panels can produce 2.5% energy savings [12], while the use of a white and highly-reflective road surface materials can improve the driver visibility, and save more than 20% due to less luminaires required [10].Design options of a road infrastructure determine its sustainability and efficiency during the whole life cycle. For road tunnels and similar underground structures, in particular, there are both technical and economic constraints and opportunities to be considered [13,14].…”

“…Current efforts in sustainable infrastructure development focus on minimizing GHG emissions related to operational energy demand (e.g. for operating systems and equipment [2]) or energy demand and emissions caused by users (e.g. 1078 (2022) 012120 IOP Publishing doi:10.1088/1755-1315/1078/1/012120 2 for vehicles on roads or rail [3]).…”
