Japanese scientists explore electric roads for EVs


They are working on a prototype of electric cars that are powered by the road itself--electric roads for electric cars. While the idea of cars powered from the ground is not new, the system that they propose is an interesting way to power electric cars as the cars travel along the road through steel belts placed inside tires and a metal plate in the road.
