Cheaper solution:

- Make people ride bicicles.

- Reduce work hours to 4 / day.

- Make it expensive to buy gas. So people ride bikes and so that Electric vehicles that are charged by solar panels increase.

If they work 4h/day it's still 10 commutes per week

So instead make them work 8h/3days (or 2.5days if you'd rather) then you only have 6 commutes per week

Or just work remotely

Commutes are less mentally draining if you're riding a bike though, you'll actually gain energy for working on challenging problems instead.
