AB Sverige is to participate in the € 9 m ( $ 9.8 m ) , three - year EVolution Road project in order to develop an electric highway with a rail capable of charging the buses moving along it . Solaris will develop the technology required to link the onboard charging station and the conductive pick - up fitted under one of its adapted buses . Work is expected to begin on a 1 km section of the road near Lund in southern Sweden early next year . In all other segments in front and behind the moving vehicles the power will be turned off, making it safe to install this type of charging in both cities and on highways. The project will intend EVolution Road to be able to charge other types of EVs in the future .
