In-Road Electric Vehicle Charging for Parked Vehicles

The global electric vehicle (EV) market is forecasted to grow by 24.3% till 2028 constantly. However, the development in charging infrastructure is still lagging behind that, hindering the EV's widespread application, i.e., 30 million chargers are still needed to support the existing EV demand. The project's objectives are (1) design a wireless charging station that allows charging multiple autonomous electric vehicles (AEVs) in the parking lot to increase efficiency, eliminate the need for individual charging wires for each EV, turn the passive parking time into a productive time, and increase the autonomy of charging process, (2) design the communication system between charging stations and AEVs (charger reservation system), the interaction between charger and AEVs, and safety. The main goal of this project is to design an inductive charging station for a fleet of automated shuttles.
