Elonroad is powering the future of mobility by developing an electric road technology designed to charge electric vehicles while they are on the go or parked. They do this by laying a smart conductive rail on top of the road. A conductive pick-up under the vehicle connects to the electric rail at 300kW 97% efficiency. The rail is only active when covered by the vehicle, which makes it safe in a city environment while also providing feedback loops to Elonroad’s software. Their software control provides built-in load balancing, access control, billing system, and additional safety features. Elonroad has completed a 1km electric road demonstration project in Lund on behalf of the Swedish Transport Administration that proves out their top of the road and submerged road technology.

Notable Achievements

  • Raised 2M EUR in 2021, with investors like EU EIT, Bring (Post Norway) and Almi Greentech.
  • Our first commercial customers were signed in 2021, and roll-out of the first stationary charging projects will get underway in 2022.
  • Pilot project for road-based charging in Lund has been up and running since 2020.
