Starting and driving methods of contactless power transmission to electric vehicles are proposed. By employing rectangular and spiral c o i l s for primary and secondary windings, respectively, for contactless power station. We could transmit electric power over 2 0 0 W to our fabricated EV motor setup and verify the actual operation on i t . The EV i s a compact prototype driven by CLPS, loaded with a light-weig ht battery. The battery supplies a part of transient current arising from starting and acceleration o f EV. We could actually drive the CLPS-powered prototype at 30km/h for the overall energy consumption o f 1OOW. Driving test with and without CLPS using "10-mode" driving schedule were executed and compared.
