Israeli Company Is Preparing Another Test of the Revolutionary System That Promises to Recharge Electric Vehicles While They Drive on Highways
ElectReon Wireless, an Israeli company focused on clean energy technologies, is building a 1 km stretch in Italy to test its electric vehicle charging technology. The Israeli technology allows vehicles to be charged while driving on the section of the highway that has the system.
When electric vehicles pass along the highway, the batteries will be charged using copper coils located under the road. The energy would be transferred through magnetic induction, being transferred entirely wirelessly. A receiver is installed on the chassis of the electric vehicles that will participate in the test. See below how the highway is coming along in Italy.
ElectReon is working with several partners on this test. The company’s aim is to understand how the system will perform in the midst of a toll entrance, with a flow of heavy traffic and different types of electric vehicles.

Renewable energy sources are gaining global prominence by driving the energy transition and reducing environmental impacts in the face of advancing climate change.
The company believes that since part of the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles will be built into the road itself, physical charging stations will not be needed in large numbers. In the future, when the technology is likely to be more advanced and widespread, it is believed that vehicles will be able to drive without having to stop to charge.
Sweden Already Has a Highway with Technology for Charging Electric Vehicles
The technology is already at a more advanced stage in Sweden. In 2021, the country inaugurated its first road capable of recharging electric vehicles. The tool is still growing. Its global use will certainly take many years. See below for a demonstration video.
Companies like ElectReon Wireless will certainly help in the growth of electric vehicle usage worldwide. One major issue still encountered is that recharging electric vehicles requires charging stations spread everywhere. Additionally, charging them at home is still very time-consuming.
