The Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer Project: the Experimental Development of an Innovative Technology towards the Decarbonisation of Transportation Systems

Session

Civil Engineering, Infrastructure and Environment

Description

In the recent years, with the rapid development of electric vehicles, the design and evaluation of different solutions for recharging these vehicles have been the subject of numerous studies. Dynamic inductive charging appears as a promising charging solution, offering several advantages: no physical connection with the vehicle, no manipulation by the user during charging, and reduced risk of damage and vandalism of the system. The research path followed two lines of experimentation. One on a large scale which consists of construction of a test track called “Arena del Futuro”, equipped with Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer technology; the track is designed to test new materials and power system solutions aimed at research and system optimization. The other, on a small scale, sees the reproduction of the same technology used in the real circuit, but in the controlled laboratory environment where each variable, that makes up the complex system, can be modified.
