From an engineering perspective, that's fairly straightforward.

No it isn't. It means that inductively coupled powering of EVs is a nonsense outside the lab. As
well as needing to keep a few 100 microns from the roadway there's also the need to keep on an
exact path in the X-Y axes too.

There's also the issue of whether the vehicle is there at all.

Like at 3 AM ferinstance.


Well yes. All that wasted power in the coils is well... kind of wasteful.

Funny that anyone would propose this as an answer to an energy efficiency issue !!!

Graham

The system would have to be designed for peak traffic flow.
The efficiency under average circumstances would be very low.
The efficiency at night would be zero.
