- Summary:
- The electric vehicle (EV) is one means of realizing carbon neutrality for automobiles, but at present, EVs still faces a number of issues. The main issues include, for example, (1) cruising range, (2) installed battery capacity, (3) charging time, (4) infrastructure facilities, and (5) support for Heavy-duty commercial vehicles. Full electrification of heavy-duty trucks, in particular, requires high power output. This means that enormous installed battery capacity is necessary, and as a result, cruising range on a par with engine-driven vehicles cannot be readily achieved.Therefore a dynamic charge system was devised here that would provide electric power to EVs directly from the infrastructure so that EVs could undergo intermittent charging while driving. This is a conductive charging system that operates from the side of the vehicle (roadside), and research has been underway on the application of this approach to passenger cars and race cars. Attention was further directed to resolving issues with freight vehicles, which account for most of the CO2 emissions in the transportation sector. The system was applied to a heavy-duty truck (42 tractor, 45-ton class), which up to now had not been readily convertible to an EV, and the results were reported at WCX 2022.The present report will describe further support for heavy-duty vehicles by expanded application to a 64 tractor (60-ton class). To support use under various road conditions, the equipment was installed in a curved portion and on uphill and downhill sections, and the report will present results from verification with actual vehicles during dynamic charging.The results include the following:
