Title
Program on Technology Innovation: Impact of Wireless
Description
This report presents an overview and analysis of wireless power transmission, also called wireless power transfer (WPT), a means of delivering power from a source to an end-use device without wires or contacts. The recent explosive growth in wireless data applications and the surge in the use of portable electronic devices has dramatically increased the market potential for wireless energy-transfer technologies. Industries are investigating the latest wireless power technologies to improve versatility, reduce costs, maintain connectivity, and eliminate the need to replace batteries. This study summarizes the current market for WPT technologies, describes commercially available products, and analyzes both the competitive potential of WPT and the risks and obstacles associated with its widespread adoption.

Smart Grid: The Tuesday Topic - Smart Grid News - Grid Modernization and the Smart Grid

 THE TUESDAY TOPIC

If you could design your own smart grid demo, what would it look like?

Three new demonstration projects caught our attention - a smart grid effort in Albuquerque's business district, a rapid recovery transformer study in Texas and a trial involving low voltage current sensor technologies in the UK. They also got us to thinking: At this stage in the smart grid build out, if you could design a demonstration project, what would it entail? That's our latest Tuesday Topic; click for the details.
