“such as along interstates”
I lived 1/2 mile from a pipeline blowout and you don’t want to be around when there’s a problem. What could possibly go wrong with placing it next to an interstate?
I thought about that when I made the suggestion. So where do you put it? I do not agree with messing up the environment or historic/heritage sites for construction projects. I wonder how many of these pipelines go through the country clubs and estates of the elite who make these decisions.
This is a problem that hasn't been solved. Perhaps part of the answer is to build factories, commercial, and residential users of electricity closer to the source.
There are thousands of miles of pipelines along interstates. They are well off the highway and marked.
