The Central Florida Expressway Authority envisions a future where a truck may be able to travel back and forth from the Gulf to the Atlantic or from the Panhandle to the Keys, without stopping to plug in or fill up on gas. Toward that, CFX is launching a $13.6-million pilot project, as part of a new highway, to advance dynamic-wireless vehicle charging technology and test its scalability.
On the pilot, the authority is partnering with ASPIRE, an electrified-transportation research center based in Utah, and has chosen green technology firm ENRX as the in-motion wireless supplier.
