This item has been around for weeks now. By question to you is to prove it. The "article" in question reads like a press release with some questionable numbers. In addition I can't find any news outlet that has covered this. There is no follow up. So this is merely idle speculation.
Also - this concept isn't new. I've seen attempts to build in Portland, Seattle, and New York. Guess how many have been built? If you guessed "zero" you would have gotten it right.
