Electric Vehicle (EV) charging has been a significant barrier to the widespread use of EVs. Traditional EV charging methods depend on cables, and there are concerns about safety, accessibility, convenience, and weather. A recent development, dynamic (or in-motion) wireless charging, enables EVs to charge wirelessly by incorporating charging infrastructure into roadways, allowing EVs to charge while moving. However, the energy transferred relies heavily on vehicle speed and time spent in the charging lane. This paper proposes an innovative solution that combines dynamic wire-less charging with Variable Speed Limit (VSL) control. This dynamic traffic control strategy adjusts speed limits based on real-time traffic, weather, and incidents. This integration of dynamic wireless charging and VSL has two potential benefits. First, it can motivate driver compliance with VSL through the incentive of charging. Second, it can promote smoother traffic flow and improve traffic safety by implementing lower speed limits at certain times. To verify these benefits, microscopic traffic simulations in SUMO were conducted under different EV penetration rates and VSL compliance rates. Simulation results reveal that the proposed approach can enhance dynamic wireless charging system performance while improving traffic flow and safety.
