The increasing number of zero-emission vehicles on the roads demands novel vehicle charging solutions that ensure convenience, safety, increased charging infrastructure availability, and aesthetics. Wireless charging technology is seen as the one that could assure these desirable properties and could be applied not just in conventional implementations but also in off-grid solutions together with roadway energy harvesting systems. Both approaches require proper transfer of energy metering methods. In this paper, a method for measuring the power transferred to the load in a wireless charging system is presented, and its systematic error is assessed in the relevant range of influencing factors. The novelty of the method is that it does not require any metrologically certified measurement instrumentation on the receiver side of the wireless charging system. The error analysis is performed using a numerical simulation. Considered error-influencing factors included secondary side electrical load, coils’ coupling coefficient and quality factor, current and voltage quantization resolution, and compensation topology type (serial-serial (SS) and serial-parallel (SP)). It was determined that the systematic error of the power assessment does not exceed 0.7% for SS and 1.1% for SP topologies when the coupling coefficient is in the range of 0.05 to 0.4 and the quality factor of the resonant system is in the range of 100 to 800.

“…For electric vehicles, IWPT is promisingly being studied [108,109], and few commercial products already exist [110]. Two main charging systems are the dominant: the static wireless electric vehicle charging system (S-WEVCS) [111] and the dynamic electric vehicle charging system (D-WEVCS) [112,113].…”

“…Two main charging systems are the dominant: the static wireless electric vehicle charging system (S-WEVCS) [111] and the dynamic electric vehicle charging system (D-WEVCS) [112,113]. While static systems function only when the vehicle is stopped and the charger is correctly aligned, dynamic systems are based on a driving path with several coils and a receiver coil in the vehicle [108,114]. In the electric vehicle IWPT charging sector, interoperability and standardization have recently gained significant importance.…”

“…IWPT requires controller units to adjust the output voltage or current in response to load variations during battery charging to maintain efficiency. In electric vehicle charging, three main approaches are employed to manage these variations: transmitter control, receiver control and dual control [108]. Transmitter control and dual control require feedback between the Tx and Rx side, while receiver control utilizes active AC/DC and DC/DC converters to regulate the device from the receiver side.…”

Unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) are key technologies to conduct preventive inspection and maintenance tasks in offshore renewable energy plants. Making such vehicles autonomous would lead to benefits such as improved availability, cost reduction and carbon emission minimization. However, some technological aspects, including the powering of these devices, remain with a long way to go. In this context, underwater wireless power transfer (UWPT) solutions have potential to overcome UUV powering drawbacks. Considering the relevance of this topic for offshore renewable plants, this work aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the state of the art regarding UPWT technologies. A technology intelligence study is conducted by means of a bibliographical survey. Regarding underwater wireless power transfer, the main methods are reviewed, and it is concluded that inductive wireless power transfer (IWPT) technologies have the most potential. These inductive systems are described, and their challenges in underwater environments are presented. A review of the underwater IWPT experiments and applications is conducted, and innovative solutions are listed. Achieving efficient and reliable UWPT technologies is not trivial, but significant progress is identified. Generally, the latest solutions exhibit efficiencies between 88% and 93% in laboratory settings, with power ratings reaching up to 1–3 kW. Based on the assessment, a power transfer within the range of 1 kW appears to be feasible and may be sufficient to operate small UUVs. However, work-class UUVs require at least a tenfold power increase. Thus, although UPWT has advanced significantly, further research is required to industrially establish these technologies.

“…The major limitations [3], [9] of EVs are limited driving range and battery life, expensive battery cost, long charging time and charging compatibility issues. The driving range limitations shall be overcome by the implementation of fast charging, ultrafast charging stations and laying dynamic charging lanes [10]- [13]. Refueling the ICE is very quick compared to EV battery charging and hence efficient quick charging methods are required to overcome the long charging times.…”

Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) particularly in the field of Electric Vehicle charging applications has wide research opportunities because of its huge growth. The power transfer efficiency is of major concern and researchers are finding ways to improve it by reducing stages of the WPT and making it better than the wired EV charging method. The increasing penetration of charging stations in the grid brings many challenges and hence to find a suitable control scheme to enhance input power quality. For the most optimal operation and comprehensive support, the charging systems must incorporate a suitable converter topology, a well-defined control strategy, and comply with all relevant grid codes and standards. For smooth and efficient functioning these features must be included in the EV charging systems. This paper presents a review of single-stage topologies and the power factor correction methods employed for EV wireless charging. An overview of different charging methods is first presented then the AC input and DC input singlestage converter are discussed, and following that methodologies for improving power factor correction are reviewed with the comparative analysis from different literatures. Finally, the challenges in single-stage wireless power transfer (SSWPT) were addressed and the future scopes were discussed which provides the future research directions.
