With energy shortages and environmental pollution increasing, pavement engineering has gradually transformed from a single traffic attribute to multi-functionality. The trend of pavement construction from “energy consumption” to “energy supply” is also obvious. Therefore, the “energy-pavement engineering” that combines energy and pavement engineering has quickly become a research hotspot in the field of transportation infrastructure. To accurately and effectively grasp the research hotspots and trends of energy-pavement engineering, the research progress and problems in the field of energy-pavement engineering in the past 20 years are systematically sorted out. Energy-pavement engineering is subdivided into two concepts: energy pavement and pavement energy. Besides, mutual penetrating and integrating while carrying out research around the hot spots of energy pavement and pavement energy is an effective way to deepen energy-pavement engineering research.
