Solar Roadways is extending their crowdfunding campaign at Indiegogo. Their innovative project is generating new interests and each contribution allows them to accelerate the final design phase and go into mass production of low-cost, high durability, user-friendly solar powered roads even faster!
Here is the amazing introduction video that helped to launch this new paradigm shift. (8,110,000 views in 10 days!)

This technology will change everything we know about energy, transportation and private/public partnerships. More below the Orange Ichthus.
These are the questions we need to ask about our roads:
1. How long do they last?
2. How effective are they to meet our society's needs?
3. How can we make them safer?
4. Will they help us to overcome the existential threat that global warming poses to our progeny and ensure that our children have a realistic chance for survival?
If these roads were installed throughout the State of Michigan they would save $99,000,000 PER YEAR in salt and snowplowing.
(not to mention the value of the electricity that they generate!)
This is the way of the future!
