E-Highway: A Future Transportation

Abstract

There is an increase demand in EV which will play a major role in future of road transport. While commercial Electric Vehicle existing today have their uptake has been limited due to limited battery range, lack of charging convenience and high purchasing cost. As cities expand and affluence rises, traffic congestion is becoming problematic. To respond to these core challenges facing the transportation sector, the E-highway is twice as efficient as internal combustion engines. The innovation includes transition from personal combustion powered vehicles towards grid-powered transportation. This innovation supplies trucks with power from overhead contact line. This reduces local air pollution and contributes significantly to the decarbonization of the transport sector.
