Dynamic electric roadway
Consider a future where you don’t have to stop to charge the battery of your electric vehicle.
Introduction
Wireless transfer of energy to vehicles via electric roadways could lead to zero-emission mobility. For example, buses, cars and trucks can charge their batteries while on the move instead of at a charge station area. Each type of vehicle has its maximum charging power, which the dynamic roadway system delivers on request of the car. Charging vehicles along the way (daytime) and not via a fixed station during peak power (evening) will also help levelling out power consumption in the grid. In addition, continuous road charging can also increase the efficiency of internal transportation systems, such as at mining sites.
- No need to stop for recharging – ideal for long-haul trucking
- Allows for intermodal e-mobility models
- Battery size and capacity can be reduced

ENRX Primove participated in the Flanders' DRIVE research project, which aimed to develop dynamic roadway charging for an electric bus. A public road in Lommel, Belgium, and a Van Hool bus was equipped with ENRX Primove technology to demonstrate this.
