A planned network of landing spots will let eVTOLs recharge their batteries between flights, keeping people above the hustle and bustle (and traffic tie-ups) that come standard with taking private cars or taxis on city streets. This flash Joule heating process can also extract rare earths from fly ash, a by-product of coal combustion.

Urban delivery trucks have low average driving speed, and electric motors provide higher efficiency at low speeds. And since these trucks typically operate on almost the same route every day and return to a company garage at the end of every operation, systematic central recharging is feasible. —Lee et al.
