Plug Less L2 Charging station

Wireless charging does have some losses making an item like this purely convenience. But imagine if those losses were offset by only carrying half or less of the battery weight (BEV).  The UK recently completed a feasibility study and is now holding bids for a contract for real world tests to install wireless induction charging in roads and highways themselves so that vehicles could charge while driving.  Even if they were only installed in highways, such that a BEV could get between cities with most or all of their charge remaining for use around the city.

Wireless losses on that system are around 12% @ 3300kW  I emailed them with that exact question.  

It's also on their FAQ page:

 

Plugless is ~12% less efficient than corded L2 30amp 240V charging systems and ~7% less efficient than corded Level 1 charging systems.
