UCLA's project, in partnership with Electreon and Calstart, aims to test wireless charging technology for electric buses, marking California's first implementation of this innovative system.
The ability to charge electric buses on-the-go is crucial as it reduces the need for extensive charging infrastructure and enhances daily operational efficiency and service for riders.
According to Clinton Bench, the project is not just about convenience but 'being a proving ground for new technologies,' showcasing the potential for broader applications in transit.
With inductive charging, the installation can become cost-competitive with traditional chargers, showing promise for more sustainable and efficient electric vehicle operations in urban settings.
