Those projects include a 10 km shared deployment for public transportation and other commercial users in&nbsp;Tel Aviv&nbsp;and a 25-30 km deployment that will charge heavy-duty trucks in&nbsp;Sweden. The company also plans to establish a local presence in selected new markets such as&nbsp;Germany,&nbsp;Italy,&nbsp;France,&nbsp;California,&nbsp;India, and&nbsp;Latin America&nbsp;where it is currently developing additional projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the global move towards electrifying heavy duty vehicles,&nbsp;California&nbsp;recently approved new rules that would force automakers to sell more electric work trucks and delivery vans, a first-of-its-kind rule aimed at helping the nation&#8217;s most populous state clean up its worst-in-the-nation air quality, making it a great potential market for a solution that can electrify heavy-duty trucks without using huge batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The funds will also be used towards expanding the range of vehicles offered for dynamic wireless charging beyond buses and heavy duty trucks to shuttles, taxies, light trucks, vans and autonomous vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ElectReon&#8217;s CEO,&nbsp;Oren Ezer&nbsp;&#8211; &#8220;We thank our investors for showing confidence in the clean mobility segment as a global growth engine and in ElectReon&#8217;s solution as a platform that can bring the world closer to 100% clean transportation&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ElectReon Wireless, a leader in developing and implementing wireless charging for electric vehicles in motion, raises&nbsp;US$50 million&nbsp;in an equity offering to boost a global shift to the cleanest form of mobility &#8211; electric vehicles with minimal batteries.
