And, while a phone can sit neatly on top of a charging pad, EVs typically require a fair bit of ground clearance for safely navigating the road. When it comes to charging an electric vehicle, huge power levels are required, in the range of tens to hundreds of kilowatts. Taking these ideas from concept into reality is difficult, though. Power is delivered to coils in the roadway, and then picked up via induction by a coil on the moving vehicle. Many are similar to the way we commonly charge phones these days, using inductive power transfer via magnetic coils. Over the years, many proposals have been made to power or charge electric vehicles as they drive down the road. However, a new wireless charging setup could allow you to juice up on the go. It’s been the major bugbear of electric vehicles since they started hitting the road in real numbers. If there isn’t a high-speed DC charger available, this can mean waiting for hours while your battery tops up.


I am actually a NYC MTA Bus Operator with over 35 years of service and i also use the app for the job and we use it in another way, when we have to relieve another bus operator out there on the road that driver has a certain run number on that route so when we hit on one of those buses on that route not only can we see the bus number we can also see the run number which means we know exactly were the bus and driver is that we have to relieve and we know approximately were that bus is supposed to be on the route so we can see if the bus is going to be here on time or late and if he is going to be very late and we are near the depot or by the terminal we can go and get another bus from the dispatcher which helps the service out there.One of the primary issues with EVs is that you need to pull over and stop to get a charge. I actually like that blue line, it’s especially good later on at night or early in the morning when there are fewer buses out there on the road, you can go up and down the route quickly to see just how far that one or two buses that are out there on the route are.
