InductEV: High-Power Wireless Charging for Commercial EV Fleets

Headquartered in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, InductEV didn’t just jump on the EV bandwagon—it built its own lane. After rebranding from Momentum Dynamics in 2022, the company doubled down on what it does best: high-power wireless EV charging. Their niche? Commercial fleets. Think buses, port tractors, and logistics vehicles that can’t afford to waste time tethered to cords. As of April 2025, InductEV operates with a patent war chest of 123 assets globally and tech that charges buses at 300 kW in real-world conditions. That’s enough to add 3 miles of range per minute—plug-free and stress-free.

Static and Dynamic EV Charging That Keeps Fleets Moving

InductEV’s claim to fame is its ability to deliver both static (stationary) and dynamic (on-route) wireless charging. Vehicles receive power through magnetic resonance pads embedded in the ground, hitting up to 450 kW when parked, and 100 kW while moving. That means transit fleets can stay on the road longer, with less downtime and fewer charging stops. Seattle’s Sound Transit system is already taking advantage, running double-decker buses that top up during scheduled stops. Meanwhile, Tel Aviv’s 200-vehicle deployment showcases the flexibility of the system on an international scale.

Commercial EV Fleet Charging and AI Energy Optimization

One of InductEV’s smartest moves is integrating AI-driven software to manage when and how vehicles charge. This reduces grid stress and shaves peak energy costs—a real plus for operators juggling dozens or hundreds of EVs. Washington State’s municipal networks love the hands-off efficiency. The system automatically keeps battery states between 40% and 80%, extending lifespan and preventing deep-cycle degradation. That’s crucial when you’re talking about battery packs worth $80,000. With Charging as a Service (CaaS) options, transit agencies can skip the upfront hardware expense and pay only for what they use.

InductEV Seattle and Long Beach Deployments

If you want to see InductEV in action, look to Seattle and Long Beach. In Seattle, Sound Transit has integrated the system across its fleet, keeping buses topped up without disrupting routes. In Long Beach, a 2024 pilot with Maersk highlights how the system fits into freight logistics, reducing total cost of ownership by up to 25% over plug-in charging setups. Even Ford has joined in, expanding a Detroit-based project in 2023 that uses dynamic wireless road infrastructure. These aren't vaporware pilots—they’re real, scalable systems saving money and cutting emissions right now.

High-Power Inductive Charging vs. Plug-in and Static Rivals

InductEV’s system holds its own against wired Level 2 setups, matching them in efficiency while eliminating physical connectors. That’s a big win in messy, fast-paced environments like ports and transit hubs. However, dynamic charging still caps at 100 kW—lower than DC fast chargers topping 350 kW—so it’s not ready for long-haul highway use just yet. Still, when your vehicle charges while picking up passengers or waiting at a terminal, those numbers stack up fast. Compared to static-focused rivals like WiTricity or dynamic-only players like Electreon, InductEV offers the best of both modes, tailored for high-uptime operators.

EV Charging as a Service and Industry Backing

InductEV’s CaaS model is key to unlocking adoption. Cash-strapped transit systems don’t have to drop millions on infrastructure—they just sign up and start charging. With $140M in funding and partnerships with OEMs like Phoenix Motorcars and ENC, the company is expanding its footprint across North America. A new 50,000 sq ft R&D center opened in 2023 to push the tech forward. And while rumors swirl about Tesla eyeing the tech for its 2027 Robotaxi fleet, InductEV isn’t waiting around—it’s already on the ground, charging real-world vehicles in real time.
