But there is little movement right now when it comes to the evolution of transportation. One could say that it is stuck in a jam. The German Federal Government wants at least 15 million electric cars on German roads by 2030.

Experts are currently working on two solutions: a) wireless charging stations in parking lots; and b) electrified roads. Transmitter coils are embedded in the road, and the corresponding coupling coils are installed on the underbodies of electric vehicles. When they come into contact, an electromagnetic field is generated and the electric vehicle battery starts to charge. In principle, all vehicles \u2013 so cars, trucks and buses \u2013 can be fitted with DWPT receiver coils. All you need is enough space underneath the vehicle floor to fit the magnetic plate, which measures around 1.20\u00a0m by 70\u00a0cm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantages and disadvantages of inductive charging<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Inductive charging means that no cable is required. Solenoid coils are used in applications where cables are not practical. A large network of electrified roads and parking lots means that electric cars could one day be fitted with smaller batteries. Electric buses with fixed routes could be operated continuously, and electric trucks could cover large distances without stopping to charge.<\/p>\n<p>But DWPT technology still has two disadvantages: low charging efficiency and comparatively high construction costs compared with conventional wired charging methods. Inductive charging speed is lower than for wired charging \u2013 not to mention the fact that, unlike with wired charging, the battery is not fully charged. This means that effective charging would require long sections of road with lots of coils so that they can work independently of one another and speed up the charging process.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ll6p17nr-25ff36427bb9b627060a035ed163708f\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-ll6p17nr-25ff36427bb9b627060a035ed163708f{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-ll6p17nr-25ff36427bb9b627060a035ed163708f hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_toggle_container  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lkwoj5vo-47e14c6cbc8170d571eccfa590c508bb'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><strong>Public and private transportation, the logistics industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Imagine how great it would be if electric vehicles could recharge while they are driving along. It would be convenient and save time. The dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) process needed for this works in the same way as for smartphones and electric toothbrushes \u2013 only, in this case, for cars and on roads. Or rather, in roads \u2013 where integrated copper solenoid coils lie in wait for an electric car equipped with a coupling coil so that the car starts recharging when contact is made. The idea can be traced back to Nikolai Tesla, who was experimenting with wireless power transfer technology as far back as the late 19th century. His vision was still too big to become a reality at the time, but over a century later and Tesla\u2019s ideas could potentially drive the innovation needed to accelerate the evolution of transportation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lkwosy25-f0ef033e1bcde97e4135154bfad78e9f'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Electrified roads are useful \u2013 particularly at traffic hubs and on busy roads \u2013 and would benefit public and private transportation and the logistics industry alike.

It is aiming to create a blueprint for cities all over the world for integrating electrified roads in transportation planning as efficiently as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='togglecontainer av-lkwoqxuq-fbf18c9c4d5323205ca47270c441f826 av-elegant-toggle  avia-builder-el-26  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_hr  toggle_close_all' >\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-lkwoqqqj-6ebc7f9b9769cad5b26aa04e92c6327f'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><h3 data-fake-id='#toggle-id-2' class='toggler   '  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-2'>Inductively charged forklifts in the SMA Logistics Center<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/h3><div id='toggle-id-2' class='toggle_wrap  '  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>In our industry too, some companies have already started to reap the benefits of inductive charging: Since 2019, SMA Solar Technology AG \u2013 a specialist in photovoltaic and storage system technology \u2013 has been operating a number of inductively charged forklifts in the corridors of the warehouse facilities at its Logistics Center in Kassel. Just a short stop on a stationary electric transmitter coil \u2013 during loading or unloading, for example \u2013 is enough to initiate charging. This offers multiple advantages rolled into one: The forklifts are always ready for operation; the bulky replacement battery no longer needs to be carried around; and it is no longer necessary to perform the time-consuming and physically demanding task of changing the battery at the end of a shift, leaving employees with more time and energy to focus on their own activities.<\/p>\n<p>Link to Video: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gSvkpW3yv00&amp;ab_channel=LindigTV\">Inductive charging for material-handling equipment and forklifts at SMA in Kassel.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3ev5tx1-ba508246d0d112ea69f20efabd2eade6\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-3ev5tx1-ba508246d0d112ea69f20efabd2eade6{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-3ev5tx1-ba508246d0d112ea69f20efabd2eade6 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-27  el_after_av_toggle_container  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lkwoke3v-e0e689e991d04699537b3532328253f8'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><strong>Trip on the electric freeway<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Inductive charging technology is attractive not only for public transportation but also for logistics and private transportation on freeways.

The technology is already demonstrating its potential in public transportation and the logistics industry \u2013 in other words, any setting in which vehicles operate along fixed routes. \u201cElectric buses are traveling for longer without any interruption; logistics vehicles are transporting more while also requiring fewer charging stops,\u201d said K\u00fchl. But he believes \u201cit will be quite some time\u201d before the charging technology becomes established on a large scale. And before we get to that point, the technology first needs to have racked up many, many kilometers on electrified roads, and electric vehicles need to be fitted with the appropriate coupling coils. Audi, Nissan, VW and others are investing huge amounts of money and resources in the technology. VW, for example, wants to install a receiver coil in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electrive.net\/2023\/03\/23\/abt-und-witricity-bringen-induktive-ladeloesung-in-vw-id-4\/\">selected electric cars<\/a> as standard by as early as 2024. Although building a one-kilometer stretch of electrified road currently costs anywhere between \u20ac2 and \u20ac3 million, \u201cthe electrification of roads could automatically be included as part of construction work going forward\u201d \u2013 and as the perfect complement to the network of charging points.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\"
