About this Event

This project evaluates the efficacy, optimal placement, and economic viability of inductive vehicle charging (IVC) technology. Using literature review, stakeholder engagement, and rigorous mathematical modeling, we developed a comprehensive framework to identify high impact use cases for this emerging technology. The findings suggest that IVC is not a universal solution, but a targeted tool within a rapidly evolving electrification landscape. It may serve as a bridging technology or a specialized solution for high utilization fleets, rather than a permanent requirement for all electric mobility.
