Off-road trials of “dynamic wireless power transfer technology are expected to start later this year and run for 18 months, Highways England and Transport Minister Andrew Jones announced. The government will install the devices under test roads and in vehicles, and determine if the charging could work on Britain’s busiest roadways. Mobile charging would solve one of the biggest hurdles to electric vehicle use — staying charged on long drives.

英格兰公路公司(Highways England)和英国交通部长安德鲁•琼斯(Andrew Jones)近日宣布，“动态无线电力输送技术的越野试验预计在今年晚些时候开始，测试期为18个月。政府将在测试段公路路面下和测试车辆上安装相应设备，以确定在英国最繁忙的路面上能否获得预期的充电效果。移动充电将消除电动车辆普及的最大障碍之一，就是在长距离驾驶时保持电量充足的问题。
