Clean public transit and heavy duty commercial fleets in the 21st century need to eliminate carbon emissions, reduce air pollutants, and support energy independence without compromising fleet operator's need to reduce rising operating costs and comply to continuous regulatory and public policy pressure to implement a green transport solution. To date, commercial adoption of battery electric vehicles (BEV) for public transit and heavy duty commercial fleets has been challenged by issues associated with the battery including: price, weight, volume, driving range, and the charging infrastructure. The Online Electric Vehicle (OLEV) system technology enables battery electric vehicles to overcome the EV battery challenge by reducing on-board battery size as much as 80 per cent and utilizing an inductive charging system that transfers electric power wirelessly from the road surface while the vehicle is in stationary or "in-motion" mode. The OLEV wireless charging system uses patent-pending Shaped Magnetic Field in Resonance (SMFIR) technology to support the efficient transfer of wireless power over a large air gap that is powerful enough to support the operations of heavy-duty public transit and commercial fleet applications. With the ability to replenish its energy level continuously from a road infrastructure, there is no limit on driving range, no need to pull a vehicle out of service periodically for recharging the battery. A significantly smaller battery also means the vehicle is lighter, easier to maintain and more efficient. Eliminating the need to wait on technological advances, the OLEV system is ready for adoption using an economically viable business model from an environmental, energy cost savings, and, total investment perspective.
