Wireless charging

NextNRG has partnered with Florida International University (FIU) to deploy one of the nation’s first large-scale wireless electric vehicle (EV) charging networks. The collaboration licenses FIU-developed technologies and applies them to real-world … [Read more...]

Inductive charging, once limited to small electronic devices like smartphones, is slowly becoming a reality for electric vehicles (EVs). In Detroit, for example, a short section of 14th Street was fitted with embedded coils that wirelessly recharge … [Read more...]

Wireless Charging Wireless charging allows electric vehicles (EVs) to be charged without the need for physical cables or plugs. Instead, it uses electromagnetic fields to transfer energy between a charging pad on the ground and a receiver on the … [Read more...]

As electric vehicles (EVs) become software-defined and cloud-connected, they introduce powerful new capabilities and a far broader attack surface. Over-the-air (OTA) updates, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, and intelligent charging … [Read more...]

On the A10 motorway, about forty kilometers (25 miles) southwest of Paris, a consortium led by VINCI Autoroutes, in collaboration with Electreon, VINCI Construction, Gustave Eiffel University, and Hutchinson, has launched the "Charge as You Drive" … [Read more...]

HEVO, a US-based developer of wireless electric vehicle (EV) charging systems, and STEER Tech, a Maryland company specializing in autonomous vehicle technology for fleet depot operations, have announced a partnership to integrate their respective … [Read more...]

Did you know that hopping in and out of electric vehicles (EVs) to plug in a charger may become unnecessary, thanks to the concept of invisible charging? Powerful coils fitted underground will soon be ready to provide energy to vehicles through … [Read more...]

California-based bus manufacturer ENC has partnered with wireless electric vehicle (EV) charging pioneer InductEV to give transit operators a broader selection of electric bus options, including proven high-power wireless charging -- eliminating … [Read more...]

The future of electric vehicle (EV) charging depends on the balance between onboard and offboard solutions, optimizing efficiency, cost, and infrastructure demands. As battery technology evolves, onboard charging systems are expected to become … [Read more...]

InductEV has joined the port industry trade alliance ZEPA to help accelerate port decarbonization and make battery-electric container handling equipment (BE-CHE) more affordable and accessible. ZEPA estimates that over 120,000 container handling … [Read more...]

The primary goals of compensation in wireless power transfer (WPT) for electric vehicles (EVs) are to improve power transfer efficiency, reduce reactive power, and ensure stable operation under varying conditions, such as load changes and coil … [Read more...]

InductEV has announced that a major electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer has chosen to implement low-power inductive wireless charging in the Tesla Robotaxi. This decision reflects the increasing recognition of wireless charging as a crucial technology … [Read more...]

There are many ways to boost the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). For starters, automobile manufacturers must build more cars. Governments and legislators should also encourage consumers to switch to EV vehicles. California has passed multiple … [Read more...]

The gap between an electric vehicle's (EV) transmitter and receiver coils during wireless power transfer (WPT) affects six parameters: Coupling coefficient Mutual inductance Alignment sensitivity Magnetic field strength Resonant … [Read more...]

Compensation in wireless power transfer (WPT) refers to using additional circuit elements to counteract the reactive power in the charging system. Simple compensation topologies are S or P-type, while basic compensation topologies include SS, SP, PS, … [Read more...]

Wireless charging allows an electric vehicle (EV) to be charged by parking it over a wireless charging pad containing an electrical coil that generates an alternating electromagnetic field when an electric current flows through it. The EV is equipped … [Read more...]
