JEDDAH: Umm Al-Qura University in Makkah has registered an invention that supports sustainability and enhances road infrastructure, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
Developed by its intellectual property department, the innovation is a concrete road barrier that generates electricity from air currents created by traffic.
