TOSA Charge Your Electric Bus in 15 Seconds!

Lots of miracles happening these days and here's another: A project called Trolleybus Optimisation Système Alimentation (TOSA) which charges an electric bus with renewable hydroelectric energy in 15 seconds is undergoing trials in Geneva, Switzerland.

As each bus comes to a stop, a laser-driven arm connects the bus to the charger, giving it a 400kW boost at selected stops. Then, at the end of the bus line, the bus can take a few minutes to recharge fully for the next trip.
