First wireless charging station for elektrikov on solar energy

Wednesday, October 12, at Delft University (Delft University of Technology), introduced the first wireless charging station for electric bikes running on solar batteries.

"This is an important step forward from the point of view of sustainable transport and energy, as the combination of solar energy, wireless charging and electric bikes is unique. This charging station can charge velosipednye battery DC power from solar energy. Charging station also can store 10 kilowatt-hours of solar energy in the batteries, which allows it to operate in standalone mode "- said the head of the group, Pavol Bauer (Pavol Bauer).

Practice and research

Charging station ready to use: it can accommodate four electric bike, electric scooter and eksperimentalny bike that is charged wirelessly. The charging station also serves as a laboratory for further investigations. Over the past two years, 10 students worked on this project. For example, students of electrical engineering, mathematics and Informatics has developed a system of wireless recharging of the bike, the other students were doing calculations and orientation of the solar panels, and a student studying industrial design, responsible for project charging station.

How it works
Experimental electric Bicycle is equipped with a double stand and a small coil. On the charging station bike you need to put the stand with the magnetic tiles. The bike can be charged directly through the coil. The user can control the charge status on the built-in screen on the charging station or on your mobile phone. Wireless charging takes approximately the same amount of time as regular charging electric bicycles.



It is assumed that eight solar panels will generate sufficient energy to power the electric bikes and scooters in the winter. And in summer, the excess power will be fed into the grid. A group of Pavol Bauer now plans to work on further developing wireless charging for various bikes and scooters. Joint use of solar panels and systems makes wireless charging systems that are costly and completely unnecessary.published
