A1 Motorway Superpower

According to various artificial intelligence systems, If an unbroken mesh of solar panels were suspended above the A1 motorway in Britain, it would produce about 2.6 Terawatt-hours of electricity every year. Enough to power nearly 1 million homes.

The A1 motorway is Britain's Longest road. It is 660km Long and usually about 25 to 30 meters wide.  It has a surface area of about 13.2 km². 

There are many more roads apart from A1, surely enough to power everything.
