World's First Electric Road: Charging EVs While Driving
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 жов 2023
- In the heart of Sweden, electric roads, known as e-roads, are revolutionizing transportation. These roads are embedded with electric rails, enabling EVs to seamlessly recharge as they travel. Imagine a world where EVs glide along highways, eliminating frequent recharging stops and addressing range anxiety. E-roads offer convenience and sustainability by reducing the need for large batteries and non-renewable resources, while also making cities quieter.
E-roads operate through conductive charging, ensuring a secure energy transfer from road to vehicle. Safety and compatibility are paramount, with insulation and versatile design. Inductive charging offers contactless convenience. Adverse weather concerns are addressed with real-time monitoring, making e-roads reliable year-round.
E-roads not only power vehicles but also reduce noise pollution in cities. They align with global sustainability goals and efforts to transition to fossil fuel-free transportation. Challenges like standardization and public acceptance persist, but global collaboration is propelling this technology forward. E-roads promise less vehicle wear, smart city integration, and reduced reliance on non-renewable resources, paving the way for a limitless, sustainable transportation future.

Nice concept, but far too expensive and dangerous in practice.
Expensive, harder to maintain, and all to support an inferior type of vehicle more susceptible to central control. Thanks but no. And scratch the thanks.
Who will pay for this BS. Every road will become a toll road.
it won't charge if you make one bad tweet lol, or if your social credit score is below 500 lol
I've been saying this should have been done since the 90s! There's no reason we couldn't have had this decades ago. West Virginia University engineering students accomplished this for their public transportation project in Morgantown WV in the 1970s! Technology advances so quickly, unfortunately humans and laws do not. Glad to FINALLY see this may be used in a larger scale.
Is this a badly timed April fools joke. Obviously a terrible idea.
Our roads charge us.
Fun experiment, but will never go mainstream. Cars can already DC quick charge and go hundreds of miles after 30 minutes. We should focus on more DC quick charge locations, even just 75kW.
can we cut the amount of filler words with marketing bs and focus on actual technology?
They can't even maintain the roads in the u.s as it is plus with snow and everything this is a stupid idea
How is this new when it’s been done for a hundred years?
Remember when we played with those little electric toy slot cars as kids? Well, folk have finally decided to use such for the real deal. 🚗⚡️
The one without contact is inducted charging not conductive charging.
We had this. It's called a tram.
Trolleybus exists since 1910. But tech bros are so ignorants.
I thought contactless charging is done by inductive means?

Conductive charging will be the future much the same way it has for charging electronic devices like cell phones and ipads... I suspect we'll see mass transit adopt it first with it eventually making its way to add-on kits for cars. Bombardier Transportation was working on this like 15 years ago but never commercialized it.... Now is the time...
Which firm produce this?
