Conductive charging is intended to eliminate the need for a cable and be more efficient than the inductive method. In addition to Easelink, the Fraunhofer IVI is working on a second standard.
Charging the battery via cable still has its drawbacks: cable theft, significant power transmission losses at the desired high charging rates, and the associated need for complex water-cooled systems reduce the efficiency of this infrastructure model. Added to this is the somewhat cumbersome handling of the charging cables and a certain anachronism if, in the future, dedicated charging personnel were to be required to charge an autonomous, unmanned vehicle.
