Springer Tracts on Transportation and Traffic24 Electrified Road Systems (ERS) for Emerging Asia

color: #212121;">This book offers a clear and realistic look at Electric Road Systems (ERS) and their potential to transform electric mobility in Asia. The book simplifies key ERS technologies—inductive, conductive, and hybrid systems—and shows how they integrate with grids, renewable energy, and AI-based management. This book offers a clear and realistic look at Electric Road Systems (ERS) and their potential to transform electric mobility in Asia. It explains how on-the-move charging can work on existing roads and addresses the policy, planning, and technical gaps faced by countries like India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and Thailand. The book simplifies key ERS technologies—inductive, conductive, and hybrid systems—and shows how they integrate with grids, renewable energy, and AI-based management. It provides regional case studies, readiness assessments, and deployment strategies tailored to Asian traffic, infrastructure, and regulations. Environmental, safety, and financial considerations are explored alongside advanced concepts such as digital twins, IoT monitoring, and smart-city integration. Designed for researchers, engineers, policymakers, and students, this book offers a grounded, practical, and forward-looking guide to ERS adoption in Asia.
