Siemens came up with the eHighway for the “electrification of truck and select highway lanes via overhead electrified wires similar to how modern day trolleys or streetcars are powered on many city streets.” California considered the concept on small sections of the state’s most heavily polluted highway. This design of an electric roadway would seriously reduce pollution and oil consumption. We think that TEV is more efficient for lots of reasons – for example because it is fully robotic, safer in bad weather and probably easier to implement. Watch the official Siemens video for eHighway to see how it works:
