Abstract :
The scarce supply of fossil fuel in the mere future has driven the development of electric vehicles (EV) worldwide. Plug-in connectors have been commonly proposed for EV charging, however, these systems have disadvantages such as safety, esthete, and operation in snow. Therefore, a new method to inductively charge the vehicle without any physical contact has been proposed. This paper presents a state of the art literature review on the recent advancements of Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) technology used in EV charging. A possible future technology to solve the inherent range anxiety problem is also presented using roadway electrification and in-motion power transfer concepts.
