Why the 60x output reduction in normal vs. road solar? With say a probably still generous 6x derating, it would mean 2.94/6/11.45 = 4% of electricity productio

Why the 60x output reduction in normal vs. road solar? With say a probably still generous 6x derating, it would mean 2.94/6/11.45 = 4% of electricity production. If you manage to avoid road solar tax (say by putting it above the road), it gets to about 25% of electricity production. Assuming a less pessimistic capacity factor of say 16% [1] gives 32% of electric production. Build a 3x wide solar cover over the interstates and .. use your imagination.
