I just watched this video about Solar Roadways, and immediately thought "Why isn't Somerville working on this?" Davis Square would be an amazing place for this kind of technology, though there may be legitimate reasons why it isn't appropriate. I'm curious to hear the perspectives people in this community about this type of project: the pitfalls, the unintended consequences, etc. On the surface, though, this seems absolutely amazing.

Given that the creators of Solar Roadways are starting their first large-scale real-world test (creating a usable parking lot), I think that theorizing about what cars MIGHT do to a product that none of us have actually used is kinda silly. It's a great concept and I hope that it works the way they say it will, and I'm sure that testing it with actual roadways and parking lots will demonstrate what works and what doesn't.
