Except for far North, lighter color cars are usually better since absorb a little less heat. Also easier to see at night. Black might look cool but it is opposite and not usually in a good way. Encouraging this new material could be produced cost effectively. The current heat reflective paints for industrial roofs expensive relative to the modest benefit. Metal roofs usually silver already but no special heat reflection.
White roofs have been a thing for decades, extra white neither here nor there in reality because dirt, dust and UV rays degrading paint, so white good enough, extra white pretty pointless but hey how about bitumen, no more black bitumen but painting roads will make them slipperier, cost a lot and require continuing maintenance. Could require land owners to paint over the car parks, especially malls but hey large empty car parks for malls is already pretty dumb. They should have a concrete slab placed above

Start putting town houses above car parks, every single mall world wide.
