Solar EV Charging While Driving on the Turnpike

What is happening? The Pennsylvania Turnpike is opting for solar energy to power its maintenance and office buildings, but the big goal is to use solar-generated power to electrify portions of the toll road so electric vehicles can charge as they travel.

Why is this important? Charging without stopping is an EV owner’s dream.

How will this be important? There will no need for property acquisition as solar panels will be installed on land already owned by the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
