Electreon
Electreon is ready to publicly demonstrate what, Oren Ezer, CEO and co-founder of Electreon, describes as "the unlimited potential of wireless Electric Road technology (Dynamic Wireless EV Charging)."
The Electreon team showcased its industry-changing wireless Electric Road technology charging a TOYOTA RAV4-PHEV as it drove on the company's demonstration wireless Electric Road for up to 100 hours. In a world first, over a five-day period, the hybrid EV's compact and lightweight 18kWh battery was never depleted (fully discharged) and will drive between 1,000 - 1,500km over the five-day period. Electreon selected this hybrid vehicle to demonstrate how any EV, even one with a minimal vehicle battery size can benefit from extended, even unlimited range, with wireless EV charging. The company's demonstration track is just over 200 meters in length and approximately 25% of the track is electrified. By driving 1,000km, the wireless EV charging technology will increase the range 13 times more than the current hybrid vehicle real-world limits; and driving 1,500km without will extend the vehicle's range 20-fold.
While drivers changed throughout the week, the vehicle didn’t need to stop for dedicated charging time throughout the five-day period. Electreon welcomed select clients, partners, suppliers, investors, industry, academics, investors, and political leaders to its headquarters to witness 'history in the driving'.
"Industry, political and public support for wireless EV charging technologies is greater now than at any other time since Electreon's doors opened in 2013,” says Oren Ezer, CEO and Co-founder of Electreon. “We witnessed industry enthusiasm for our wireless EV technology grow into unwavering support. Now we see it bloom into declarations of commitment to advance wireless charging in commercial projects in public roads across the globe. Today we are involved in a dozen projects across five countries together with more than 60 global partners, including leading automotive partners. This is the tipping point. We launched the first public shuttle that charges as it drives in Germany (dynamically). Here we’re also demonstrating the true potential of the wireless EV charging road."
