Japan researchers proposing novel method for powering on-road EVs

Green Car Congress

Their basic concept stems from electric railways, where each car of the train is powered from an overhead wire. The EV picks up the RF voltage via electrical capacitance between the metal and a steel belt installed inside of the tires of the EV. The RF voltage is applied to a balanced metal track embedded under the surface of the road.
