These strike me as a much better plan than in-road wireless.
Though, I wonder what the durability of these are compared to the same you see in cities for trams. Big difference for those is the speed. Would they get worn away too fast? Can they economically make the cables extra thick/hard to compensate?
I mean regular trains do use them all the time and those can go like 80-320 km/h (or even faster in other countries) where as truck only go like 80-100 km/h in Germany.
I’m more concerned how much the amount of trucks wears them down compared to trains. You need many more trucks than trains for the same amount of goods and also trucks have a much higher frequency.

Trucks in Germany are electronically limited to 90kph. It’s impossible for them to drive 100
