Abstract
Disclosed is a method and system for providing reporting and billing information in an installed energy roadway system tied in with a geothermal infrastructure. Newer alternative energy gathering systems will need state of the art reporting systems to generate accurate accounting, power distribution, efficiency, maintenance, billing and third party royalty information. The invention method provides at least one pump of a geothermal infrastructure. The at least one pump is electrically connected to a roadway system electricity grid. The invention method further tracks an amount of energy consumed by the least one pump and charging a consumer the amount of energy consumed by the at least one pump.
