French Roadside Charging System Shows Promise for Future EV Charging on the Move
A pilot program in France is testing a new wireless charging system that could enable electric vehicles to charge on the go by transferring over 300 kilowatts of power through coils built into the road. The technology is being touted as a potential future for EV charging.
A new wireless charging pilot in France aims to revolutionize electric vehicle charging by integrating coils into roads that can transfer up to 300 kilowatts of power as cars move, potentially transforming the driving experience and making EV ownership more convenient and accessible. The technology has been successfully tested in a small area and is being seen as a potential solution for widespread adoption of EVs on long trips. If successful, it could enable drivers to charge their vehicles without having to stop at designated charging stations, reducing range anxiety and increasing the appeal of electric vehicles.
