Maglevs are great though when combined with build-in solar. They become energy positive and can replace entire power plants in terms of capacity even on short-ish routes.

Solar roadways are a crappy idea because asphalt and solar panels have completely different engineering requirements, and roads don't even have buildin electrical lines. No contact, no moving part, already electrified and pylonified maglev on the other hand...
