Oh, the solar panels go above the road, thats way less dumb.
Yeah, also helps with cooling probably, asphalt can get pretty hot in the sun
Is cooling asphalt important? Do cars require less ac?
Both temperature fluctuations and high heat generally cause damage to the road over time, along with causing or worsening other problems, including worsening the heat experienced by people even in the cars like you suggest by radiating heat into the air above the road.
They did it. They actually made the solar frickin roadways
Same era to me as 2 am chili
Oh look, it's the idea that the US deemed "too expensive" because the solar highways require a fair bit of upkeep. Turns out that is actually quite affordable when you put people ahead of profit.
if you proposed the highway system itself today, it would never get built
it would be a permitting hell, but Ike wanted it because it was so hard for the military to move assets around so that aspect of it might be enough to get some of it through the bullshit
They would just do redlining but for roads that don't connect to any other roads.
A link to a reddit posts of a tiktok video with no words. Here is an actual article about it, I wouldnt exactly call it "cover all highways in solar panels". Its more like several regional governments are considering using the free land around and above highways to promote solar projects.
china is gonna do geo engineering by accident once the entire country is just a china shaped solar panel
"What did you think electrostate was supposed to mean?"
But at what cost?
Seriously asking, this looks pretty expensive to do.
