Philadelphia-based InductEV and Skien, Norway-based ENRX AS Sign MOU to Align Technical Standards and Ensure Compatibility
KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., and SKIEN, Norway, Nov. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Two recognized global leaders in wireless inductive EV charging and energy transfer technology today announced an agreement wherein they will collaborate to establish standards for the fast-growing technology. The emergence of wireless inductive charging was given a boost when electric passenger car leader Tesla announced the autonomous robotaxi, which operates with a low power wireless charging system.
Philadelphia-based InductEV, whose focus is on electric vehicles used in commercial fleets, and Norway based ENRX, with 75 years of experience in the wireless transfer of energy in heating systems and more recently with electric vehicles, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that seeks to establish technical standards and ensure compatibility across the wireless EV charging ecosystem worldwide. InductEV and ENRX are focused on a standard at power levels several times higher than the robotaxi system, essential for eliminating range anxiety that has impeded the growth of electric vehicles.
Through this first-of-its-kind collaboration, the two companies expect to provide users of the technology with expanded market access while contributing to an open ecosystem that drives innovation and supports user choice. Moreover, InductEV and ENRX seek to accelerate the widespread adoption of wireless inductive charging technology in the transport sector, benefiting all with enhanced ease of use, compatibility, and reliability.
"We look forward to working alongside the engineers at ENRX to help standardize the technical specifications of wireless charging technology across the globe," said John Rizzo, CEO, InductEV. "We're at a tipping point in the transportation sector's adoption of wireless inductive charging, making this collaboration that much more crucial as end customers and vehicle makers want to be assured of multiple sources of supply for this mission-critical technology. As a company, InductEV has already shipped Gigawatts of power wirelessly, more than the entire industry combined to date. We are well positioned with ENRX to contribute to the coming wireless EV charging transformation."
Areas of Collaboration Include:
"We have been following the commercial adoption of InductEV's wireless inductive vehicle charging model and found that our two companies have much in common from a technological standpoint," said CCO and Business Area Manager at ENRX, Magnus Vold. "With our almost 20 years of experience in the European high-power wireless charging business, we also recognize the need for greater standardization of the technology in the automotive sector. We are therefore pleased that the team at InductEV agreed to partner with us to establish those industry standards."
Nils-Gunnar Vågstedt, Senior Expert Electromobility, R&I at Scania Group and Co-Chair of SAE International's J2954-2 Heavy Duty Charging Committee, observed: "With the aid of standardization and interoperability, the modern trucking industry has become a very efficient one, also performing safe and at a low cost of operation."
InductEV's high-power wireless charging system works by using inductive charging pads: an in-ground pad that is instantly activated when paired with an under-the-vehicle pad, which is installed during the vehicle's manufacturing. Current InductEV systems can provide 75 kW up to a 450-kW wireless power output. Significantly, the company's solution shifts the charging paradigm from relying solely on time- and energy-intensive overnight wired charging sessions in depots to shorter charging sessions spread throughout the day, which reduces the friction of electrification for both power utilities and fleet operators by maximizing the use of available renewable energy.
In the charging arena, ENRX has delivered wireless induction charging solutions for ferries and various industrial vehicles, as well as for buses in several major cities in Europe. Notably, in Braunschweig, Germany, a 12-kilometer bus route equipped with a 200kW wireless charging system has been continuously operating for over a decade.
