WiTricity

[2] By 2018, WiTricity had partnered with more than a dozen automotive companies, including nine of the world's largest ten, on research and development projects.

[6][15] In late 2020, MIT and WiTricity filed an infringement lawsuit against the Pennsylvania-based company Momentum Dynamics over seven wireless energy transfer patents.

[20] The round was extended for an additional $18 million raised in January 2021; Tony Fadell was among the private investors and joined WiTricity's advisory board.

[3] The technology works through various materials, such as stone, cement, asphalt or wood, and has an energy conversion efficiency end-to-end above 90 percent, equivalent to plugging in.

[5][27] WiTricity's EV has charging rates from 3.6 to 11 kW, and the technology scales up to hundreds of kilowatts for heavy duty vehicles such as buses.

[28] WiTricity has reached licensing deals with Anjie Wireless,[29] Delphi (Aptiv), Intel,[5][30] Mahle, TDK, Toyota,[3][14] and Zhejiang VIE.

[4] WiTricity has demonstrated wireless charging for consumer products such as laptops, mobile phones, televisions,[31] and solar panel receivers.

[3] In 2018, BMW's 530e iPerformance became the first vehicle factory equipped with wireless charging,[15] and Hyundai's Kona also demonstrated use of the technology.

[40][41][42] In 2022, WiTricity licensed its technology with Wiferion, which develops wireless charging systems for industrial applications such as automated guided vehicles, cobots, and trucks.
