It will be expensive. They will have to dig up roads to install these massive charging coils.

Assuming that it works imagine what it would cost to install this on all interstate highways?

From another article dealing with this technology for charging busses —

“The receiver operates with a nominal airgap of just 17 cm above the coil.”

17 cm? That is 6.7 inches clearance. Seriously?

Apparently they have some things to work on to implement such a concept.

Wouldn’t a snow plows blade drive the coils crazy , oh wait a woman is in charge

[butlerweave]

Well Buttplug is digging up all the racist roads anyway

And where will they get the electricity generation capacity to keep the roads charged?

The Roads Must Roll!

I assume it’s inductive charging. Could be a good idea for one lane on major roads if EV become real popular. I wonder how much cancer that high an inductive field would cause. Continuous CT scan level fields or would it be more like MRI.

Yeah and imagine how many carcasses animal will have to pick up.
