Wireless charging technology for electric vehicles (EVs) provides a convenient and efficient solution to overcome the limitations of conventional plug-in charging systems. This project presents the design and implementation of a Solar-Powered Wireless Vehicle Charging Station with dual charging spots. The system leverages inductive power transfer to enable cord-free battery charging. Powered primarily by a solar panel with battery storage backup, an Arduino Nano microcontroller manages the charging process using vehicle detection sensors (HC-SR04) to automatically activate the corresponding transmitter coil only when a vehicle is present. A 16×2 LCD screen provides a real-time user interface. The system successfully demonstrates a proof-of-concept for a decentralized, eco-friendly charging solution, integrating renewable energy with smart, sensor-based control. The high-frequency inductive coupling technique transfers electrical power wirelessly between a stationary charging station and an electric vehicle using a half-bridge inverter and air-core coils, achieving safe, contactless, and reliable energy transfer.
