To minimize the greenhouse effect caused by emission of CO2 , many automobile manufacturers are developing battery‐powered automobiles that typically use rechargeable lithium ion batteries. However, the future of these battery electric vehicles (BEVs) is less than certain.

    The rechargeable lithium batteries are heavy and expensive with a limited life. As an alternative to this BEV, road‐powered electric vehicles (RPEVs) have been developed, which utilize the dynamic charging technologies; one of the recently developed examples is the on‐line electric vehicle (OLEV).

    OLEV draws its electric power from underground electric coils without using any mechanical contact. Batteries are recharged whenever OLEV draws electric power from the underground coils and thus does not require expensive separate charging stations. The infrastructure cost of installing and maintaining OLEV is less than those required for other versions of electric vehicles.

    Detail rationales for dynamic charging will be covered in succeeding chapters, but the overview will be provided in this chapter.
