Wireless Charging Market Report

The sustained commitment of the global community to mitigating the consequences of climate change is anticipated to result in the widespread adoption of renewable energy technologies such as electric vehicles (EVs). Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular since they minimize dependency on fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions. The primary conditions for a successful and easy transition to EV-based transportation are safety and convenience. Wireless charging stations will therefore become one of the growing trends in the field of EV charging that has lately gained significant critical attention from researchers and practitioners in order to adapt to the prospective power and energy demands of EV fleets. Major businesses are focusing on investing in wireless charging for electric vehicles in order to meet the increasing energy demands of electric vehicles, contributing to overall wireless charging market growth.

For example, in June 2022, Siemens invested USD 25 million and acquired a minority position in WiTricity, a wireless charging technology firm located in the United States. It was determined that Siemens and WiTricity will collaborate to foster innovation in the expanding wireless EV charging industry. As part of this collaboration, the two businesses seek to address gaps in global wireless charging standardization for electric passenger and light-duty commercial vehicles, enabling interoperability between vehicles and infrastructure and assisting in market adoption. Furthermore, both parties are also determined to work together to enhance the technological development of wireless charging systems and improve the efficiency of electric vehicle charger infrastructure.

There is a growing demand for high-speed wireless and simultaneous multi-device charging stations in the consumer electronics business. These wireless multi-device chargers can charge smartphones, laptops, smartwatches, and other electronic devices at the same time without any technical errors such as overheating, since these chargers are provided with an advanced heat management system. Additionally, due to the lack of a cord, these Qi-based multi-device chargers are quicker, more convenient, and easier to transport than wired chargers.

Furthermore, to meet the huge demand for wireless simultaneous charging stations, several market participants are working on developing and marketing new Qi-based chargers. This contributes to the expansion of the footprints of key industry participants. Besides, the rise in smartphone usage will drive the need for wireless charging, while the rise in Internet connection will drive machine-to-machine and Internet of Things communication. Since the devices in an IoT network require continuous power sources, the global wireless charging industry has significant development potential, strengthening the overall wireless charging market outlook. The increasing adoption of advanced energy storage solutions such as the flexible battery is also expected to complement future wireless charging applications in connected devices.

• Integration of wireless charging into wearable technology for added convenience.
• Incorporation of wireless charging pads in public spaces and commercial settings.
• Enhancement of compatibility across devices and brands for seamless charging.
• Integration of wireless charging technology into furniture and infrastructure.
• Adoption of wireless charging in the automotive industry for enhanced convenience.

The market is controlled by established firms that invest significantly in research and development in order to increase performance through the deployment of cutting-edge technology. Contracts, new product releases, corporate expansions, collaborations, and acquisitions are a few of the innovative growth strategies used to expand the market internationally. In December 2022, Tesla officially introduced the Tesla wireless charging platform, a Qi-based wireless charging solution inspired by its future Cybertruck. It can wirelessly charge up to three devices at the same time, with each item receiving up to 15W of electricity. Such developments are influencing evolving wireless charging market trends across multiple end-use sectors.

Additionally, WiTricity, the global leader in wireless charging for electric vehicles, stated in July 2022 that it had licensed its wireless charging technology to Wiferion, the top supplier of mobile wireless power supply for industrial e-vehicles. Wiferion creates wireless charging solutions for a variety of industrial applications, including automated guided vehicles (AGV), industrial trucks, and mobile collaborative robots (AMR/Cobots), all of which demonstrate the growing relevance of autonomy. Again, in July 2019, Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDT), a wholly owned subsidiary of Renesas Electronics Corporation, announced the sampling of the P9415 receiver and P9247 transmitter, which work together to enable smartphones to charge wirelessly with up to 30W of power, closing the charging time gap between wireless and wired charging options. Such innovations are increasingly supported by advanced power management IC technologies that optimize charging performance and energy efficiency.

The initial cost of wireless chargers for consumer electronic products such as smartphones and laptops is greater than that of traditional cable chargers. The high cost of cordless charging decreases the margins of different consumer product manufacturers. Cordless charging additionally increases the cost of an electric car charging station. The components of a wireless and cordless charger, such as the transmitter, rectifier, inductive plate, and receiver, are considerably more expensive than previous generations of technology. The high cost of the internal components of cordless chargers impacts the overall cost and, as a result, boosts the final cost of the product. Cordless chargers are less compatible with existing electronic equipment; so, this charging technique can only be applied to new electronic gadgets, which is accountable for delaying adoption. 

Furthermore, the global wireless charging industry has yet to settle on a single standard that is interoperable with all systems. As a result, the lack of consistent charging standards is expected to hinder the global wireless charging market throughout the forecast period. Apart from this, wireless charging is slower than traditional charging and takes twice as long to charge a smartphone as cable charging. This is because inductive power transmission takes longer to produce an electromagnetic field. This further slows the flow of electric current from the charging pad to the device, increasing the overall charging time. As a result, people prefer cable charging over wireless charging. As a result, slow charging rates are likely to hinder market growth during the forecast time frame. These factors remain critical considerations in any wireless charging industry analysis.
