2025 APEC Conference Selects IEEE Paper about Electro Standards' EV Wireless Charging Work

Dr. Raymond B. Sepe from Electro Standards Laboratories will be attendance at the 2025 Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) in Atlanta, GA for his work discussed in the IEEE Paper entitled "Demonstrating Dynamic Wireless Charging of an Electric Vehicle: The Benefit of Electrochemical Capacitor Smoothing".
Below is the abstract for the paper but IEEE members can read the entire paper at https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6766880
Abstract:
The wireless charging of an electric vehicle (EV) while it is in motion presents challenges in terms of low-latency communications for roadway coil excitation sequencing and maintenance of lateral alignment, plus the need for power-flow smoothing. This article summarizes the experimental results on power smoothing of in-motion wireless EV charging performed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) using various combinations of electrochemical capacitors at the grid side and in the vehicle. Electrochemical capacitors of the symmetric carbon-carbon type from Maxwell Technologies comprised the in-vehicle smoothing of wireless charging current to the EV battery pack. Electro Standards Laboratories (ESL) fabricated the passive and active parallel lithium-capacitor (LiC) unit used to smooth the grid-side power. The power pulsation reduction was 81% on the grid by the LiC, and 84% on the vehicle for both the LiC and the carbon ultracapacitors (UCs).
