Application of the concept of inductive power transfer to propulsion of buses, automobiles, and trucks can contribute to a quality national transportation system. The concept is basically an air gap transformer which inductively couples the primary in the roadway to the secondary suspended beneath the vehicle. Power is transferred efficiently in this manner and can be used in an electric motor for propulsion. The concept originated nearly 100 years ago, but only recently received attention as a means of providing quality highway transportation with little visual and audible presence, no noxious fumes, and without dedicated use constraints. Implementation of this concept could reduce the present, nearly complete dependence of transportation on petroleum. Current investigations include a detailed experimental program, evaluation of the impact on electrical utility generating capacity and early applications in transit. Progress has been slowed by federal government funding limitations; future progress will be impeded unless new support is forthcoming. (ERA citation 07:044123)
