Solar Roadways get prototype funding from DOT
Aug 29th 2009 12:18PM (Autoblog Green)The first X number of length of road will be very expensive, and it will reduce in cost every length thereafter.
If this is shown to be even a third as promising as their numbers, don't you think other companies will spring up to develop ways to both make it more efficient thus profiting from it themselves? The power generated should pay for the roads. The resulting industry change would negate any need for a road tax from the government. The government does not create the roads and would have no need to tax them, only regulate them.
The coal industry would take a hit, since we would no longer need in, is nearly as much, we can now export it to the growing economies (and not to mention more than 30% of the world's population) in India and China.
The more I think about it, the better this idea sounds. The government is only investing 100k, I think we can calm down on the hyperbole.
