Honda Develops Wireless Dynamic Charging Technology for EVs

Honda’s research institute, working with Taisei Corporation and Taisei Rotec, has developed a wireless dynamic charging system that powers electric vehicles, including large trucks, while they are in motion. The companies plan to run demonstration tests on highways after 2027. The technology continuously supplies power as an EV drives, cutting the number of times a vehicle must stop to charge at home or at charging stations.

Wireless dynamic charging shifts the EV infrastructure question from stationary plugs to electrified roadways, a far heavier capital and coordination problem. The choice of large trucks as a target signals where the economics bite hardest: long-haul freight has the least tolerance for charging downtime. Success now hinges less on the hardware than on whether highway operators and utilities can justify embedding power delivery into public roads. The post-2027 demonstrations will be the first real test of that business case.
