I would like to see this come to fruition. According to the designer, if it replaced the current roadways in the US, it would provide three times the electrical energy needed by the country.

It might be pie in the sky, but with that type of surplus, an electric bill might be a thing of the past, and with the advent of electric cars, fuel cost as well. Citizen consumer wins.

There would still be a bill. Roads would still need to be mailtained and you’d have to pay a much higher wage for people who can fix that road.

But overall, it’s possible that the overall costs could be lower.
