I read the briefing acticle &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.economist.com\/displaystory.cfm?story_id=14362092\" target=\"_blank\">The electrification of motorisation<\/a>&#8221; (with subtitle: &#8220;The electric-fuel-trade acid test&#8221;) in The Economist of September 5th-11th 2009, on page 73. I was excited and thrilled to read this article in the hope they could provide me with new information about this subject. Since it is The Economist wiriting, it is ofcourse about the Joule per dollar one can get out of a gas or electrical battery. The thesis continues about the bateries, new developments make <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Lithium-ion battery\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lithium-ion_battery\" rel=\"wikipedia\" target=\"_blank\">Li-ion<\/a> bateries faster to charge, nanotubes to give the electrones a smooth ride. etc. Then they talk about the infrastructure to recharge and to increase the range of your car. There are mentioned two possibilities: 1. <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Charging station\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Charging_station\" rel=\"wikipedia\" target=\"_blank\">charging station<\/a> at fuel stations, charging a highspeed (and very expensive) battery for 80% in 30 minutes. 2. swapping stations that replace the depleted battery with a new one (see also the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ted.com\/talks\/lang\/eng\/shai_agassi_on_electric_cars.html\" target=\"_blank\">TED talk of Shai Agassi<\/a>) .<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>However there is a \u00a0third possibility. I have not calculated the physics behind it, but is just starts with an idea. That idea \u00a0is a very well known natural phenomena and is called induction. I tried in my young days to get a lightbulb light-up by having an electrical coil placed at the wheelfork of my bike and placing magnets on each spoke in reversing order of the north and south pole. Turning the wheel made the bulb light-up.<\/p>\n<p>To drive a car in long distances one can put magnets in the road. Reversing the order of the north and south pole, and put along eachother in a high denstity. Driving over them with a car with a electrical coils beneath, recharges as it goes. It is like having a fuel hose connected to your car. The recharging problem is over. And is even beter then traditional cars, because you can do this with electricity!<\/p>\n<p>Why do we still keep thinking in old paradigms? The solution is very simple, and the solution is real! One can watch the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ted.com\/talks\/eric_giler_demos_wireless_electricity.html\" target=\"_blank\">TED talk about Wireless Electricity from Eric Giler<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To power such an in frastructure one can use <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Solar panel\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Solar_panel\" rel=\"wikipedia\" target=\"_blank\">Solar panels<\/a> along side the highway that can serve as a sound wall and charging the electrical coils that are placed in the road.
