Detroit is now home to the country’s first chunk of road that can wirelessly charge an electric vehicle (EV), whether it’s parked or moving.
Why it matters: Wireless charging on an electrified roadway could remove one of the biggest hassles of owning an EV: the need to stop and plug in regularly.
Why occasionally plug in when you can lose roughly 50% efficiency and not. Such a boondoggle.
Not only that but AFAIK no current EV can do wireless charging so who do they expect to use this? I should probably read the article.
