World’s First Permanent Electrified Road For Electric Vehicles (EVs) To Charge While Driving Is Being Built In Sweden
30 / 4 / 2023
Sweden is converting the E20 highway into the world's first permanent electrified road, allowing cars and trucks to recharge while driving.
1
The project is planned to be built by 2025 and will use dynamic charging technology

which enables vehicles to travel longer distances with smaller batteries and avoid waiting at charging stations.

The charging method has not yet been decided, but there are three options: catenary, conductive, and inductive systems.

A recent study also found that combining home charging with dynamic charging could reduce the battery size of privately driven cars by up to 70%.
