Wireless charging of Electric Vehicles, buses and trucks is rapidly moving from the development to real world applications. This technology can provide safe, efficient and fast charging of Electric Vehicles at rates of 100 kW and beyond and will be a critical component of the EV and autonomous vehicle ecosystems. In this talk, I will review some of the important performance criteria for these applications and present our recent results in this area.
