| Abstract(E) | Wireless charging (wireless power transfer, WPT) for electric road vehicles is moving from prototypes toward pilots and early products, motivated by convenience, automation readiness, and the potential to reduce battery size through opportunity charging and dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT). This paper reviews key challenges and opportunities for static and dynamic WPT, focusing on interoperability and standardization (IEC 61980 family, SAE J2954, ISO 15118), core technologies (magnetic couplers, power electronics, alignment, safety sensing, EMC and EMF), and enabling energy management from vehicle to grid and fleet levels. We highlight where standards already provide a foundation and where gaps remain for scalable deployment, especially for DWPT and heavy duty applications. |
