• North Carolina’s Raleigh is the first in the United States to adopt wireless EV charging!


  • Wireless charging is indeed one of the most promising developments in automotive technology. Systems like these could make juicing up electric cars of the future a lot easier. All drivers will be required to do further ahead is drive their car over a charging pad and fill up their electric cars with clean and renewable energy! Now, Raleigh in North Carolina has adopted the technology and is easily one of the pioneers of wireless car charging on a larger scale.

    The first US municipality to join the Apollo Program that is involved with testing wireless electric vehicle chargers made by Evatran, Raleigh will lead the world in this technology. Home stations as such will cost $4,000 and will include the on-board receiver, garage-floor transmitter and garage installation, allowing users to wirelessly charge their EVs at home!
