Yesterday there was a news piece about Sweden experimenting with in-road electrification, something we have had heard of for years. I never thought it was truly feasible believing the major construction that would be needed. But as they showed in the picture it was just embedding a rail into an existing road. Similar to the old trollies except instead of overhead wires it would be part of the road itself. If this comes to pass it would reduce the need of the amount of charging stations for EVs.
Copied from the internet: Sweden is planning to build a first of its kind, permanent electrified highway by 2025 that would enable EVs to charge while on the go. Different electrified road systems have been tested. Among them, one Swedish company thinks its technology is the answer.
