Currently reading: No stops needed: New Honda tech can charge EVs while driving

'Dynamic wireless power transfer' is intended to reduce the time HGVs are stopped, supplying up to 150kW

Honda is one of many organisations that have been researching the charging of EVs on the move. It has been doing so since 2021 and this month announced the development of the underlying technology.

Japanese civil engineering and building giant Taisei is working on the construction methods for embedding wireless power transfer equipment into road surfaces and developing roadside DC power supply units, while Honda's R&D division is developing compatible receivers and transmitters.
