WIRELESS CHARGING SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Wireless Charging Systems for Electric Vehicles represent a practical and future-ready solution to support sustainable mobility and modern smart-city infrastructure. This project demonstrates how electrical energy can be transferred efficiently and safely without physical cables by utilising electromagnetic induction, resonant coil design, power electronics, and IoT-based communication. Features such as contactless operation, automatic charging activation, Foreign Object Detection, and BMS integration reduce manual effort, enhance safety, and improve reliability for both individual users and fleet operators. The use of resonant compensation networks in this project improves transfer efficiency significantly compared to basic inductive systems, which lessens dependence on plug-in infrastructure and supports wider EV adoption. In the future, dynamic in-road charging lanes, Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) bidirectional power transfer, and AI-based coil alignment optimisation can further enhance the capability of wireless EV charging systems. Integration of renewable energy sources such as solar power can also improve overall system sustainability. When connected to smart city platforms, these systems can provide municipal and transport authorities with real-time data for efficient energy management, promoting cleaner and more autonomous urban environments.
