Evaluation of constructability of dynamic charging systems for vehicles in Norway

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: Trondheim : SINTEF, 2018Description: 26 sSubject(s): Online resources: Notes: Project: ELinGO - Electrification of heavy freight transport. Appendix I Abstract: The aim of this document is to assess the constructability of dynamic charging systems for goods transport by electric vehicles. This document is part of ELinGO’s work package A2, which includes among other things technology evaluation and evaluation of system integration and costs. Due to limited resources and relevant literature, a panel of various professionals related to road construction, railroad (contact line), energy transformation and civil engineering has made qualitative evaluations of dynamic charging systems based on available experience and literature. The panel has discussed the following aspects related to 1) contact-line-pantograph solution, 2) conductive rails integrated in the road surface and 3) Inductive charging: - Implementation of charging facility in new road - Implementation of charging facility in existing/old road - Operation and maintenance aspects - Construction cost - Aesthetics - Personal safety/pedestrian safety - Risk related to availability-downtime due to maintenance

Project: ELinGO - Electrification of heavy freight transport. Appendix I

The aim of this document is to assess the constructability of dynamic charging systems for goods
transport by electric vehicles. This document is part of ELinGO’s work package A2, which includes
among other things technology evaluation and evaluation of system integration and costs.
Due to limited resources and relevant literature, a panel of various professionals related to road construction,
railroad (contact line), energy transformation and civil engineering has made qualitative
evaluations of dynamic charging systems based on available experience and literature. The panel
has discussed the following aspects related to 1) contact-line-pantograph solution, 2)
conductive rails integrated in the road surface and 3) Inductive charging:
- Implementation of charging facility in new road
- Implementation of charging facility in existing/old road
- Operation and maintenance aspects
- Construction cost
- Aesthetics
- Personal safety/pedestrian safety
- Risk related to availability-downtime due to maintenance
