What Is Ground Level Power Supply
In the concept and group of technologies known as ground-level power supply (also known as surface current collection or, in French, alimentation par le sol), electric vehicles collect electric power at ground level from individually powered segments as opposed to the more common overhead power lines. The usage of a power supply located at ground level has been done largely for aesthetic reasons. In the latter part of the 2010s, it began to compete well with the overhead lines in terms of cost.
