One of the first places this theory has been tested is Japan. Japan has widely accepted EVs and was the first to put EVs to work during natural disasters. Japan is prone to thousands of tsunamis and earthquakes each year. It can recharge where the power supply has been restored, and then drive on to another hard-hit region.”

Who, after all, hasn’t tired of having to plug in and unplug their phone and other rechargeable gizmos? Indeed, it’s hard to recharge or power a device when the air gap is just a few centimeters, much less a few meters. Indeed, efficiencies can exceed 70 percent, more than double that of a typical solar cell. It’s a nuisance.
