Feasibility of Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer for In-motion Charging of Electric Vehicles
This study focuses on understanding the economic feasibility, environmental impact, and infrastructure optimization of in-motion WPT applied to the U.S. transportation fleet. Integrating geographically diverse real-world drive cycles with dynamic vehicle models and variable vehicle adoption and infrastructure deployment rates, the economic feasibility, environmental impact and infrastructure requirements were determined. Technology optimization results show that the vehicle characteristics of a WPT EV fleet will consist of 25-mile range EVs with 2C stationary charging at locations stopped greater than one hour and 50 kW charging on high-speed (greater than 30 miles per hour (mph) primary and secondary roadways, representing a total roadway infrastructure cost of $1.45 trillion. When used in conjunction, optimized vehicle and roadway architectures satisfy 97.7% of 24-hour drive cycles, a 22.4% increase from when no in-motion charging is used. Work includes the assessment of the economic viability and environmental impact of a national role out.
