Summary:

AbstractThis research sought to develop a dynamic charging system, achieving an unlimited EV cruising range by charging the EV at high power during cruising. This system would help make it possible to finish battery charging in a short time by contact with the EV while cruising and enable drivers to freely cruise their intended routes after charging.A simulation of dynamic charging conditions was conducted for ordinary autonomous cruising (id est, ordinary EV cruising) when dynamically charging at a high power of 450-kW (DC 750V, 600A). This report discusses the study results of a method of building the infrastructure, as well as looking at the cruise test results and future outlook.In particular, the research clarified the conditions for achieving an unlimited vehicle cruising range with a 450-kW dynamic charging system. It also demonstrated that this system would allow battery capacities to be greatly reduced and make it possible to secure the battery supply volume and resources. It furthermore showed that even large trucks can be electrified, something considered challenging up to now
