Wouldn't work over here! The clowns would no sooner have it laid than they would start digging it up to lay some pipe or cable!

I like the idea, I think this could be a great solution for our future power requirements.
I'm just concerned about driving on glass on a rainy/snowy/icy day however.

It's always interesting to see these kinds of inovative ideas...
