Sweden just proved that it really is ahead of its neighboring countries and also a revolutionary in the sustainable and economical fast energy. Sweden just introduced electric roads which will let electric cars running on it, charge their batteries. This unprecedented invention comes after years of planning and has taken the world of applied science by storm.
Sweden had envisioned a 70 percent reduction in the emissions of French house gases by 2030 and with the launch of the electric roads this seems like a real possibility. It's not the first time Sweden has done something this trailblazing and futuristic. The electric roads are the future of fast energy and effective environmentalism. Let's find out how exactly Sweden made this incredible dream come alive.
1How does it work?

The electrical road works by recharging the batteries of the vehicles which are running on them. So basically it successfully utilises energy and gains power at the same time. The technology used is called conductive charging. 1.2 miles of electric rail was modified to transform into roadways near Stockholm which are now used as the electric roads.

The technology used for this revolutionary discovery is called conductive recharging. There is a substantial use of conductors in these new electric roads. According to a certain project overseer, the electricity from the railroads are actually passed on through these conductors which are in fact fitted on the electric roads.
