"China is living in the future when it comes to EV charging. Instead of drivers
hunting for an open charging spot in a parking garage, overhead rail-mounted
charging robots now travel along ceiling tracks and come to the car. The
concept, already deployed in garages across multiple Chinese cities, turns
every parking space into a potential charging spot without the cost of
installing individual chargers at each one.
A video circulating on social media this week shows one of these systems in
action: a compact robotic unit gliding along a ceiling-mounted rail in an
underground parking garage, stopping above a parked EV, and lowering a charging
connector to plug in automatically. No app, no waiting in line, no dedicated
charging bay required."
