Evatran Planning New EV Charger Plugless Power for 2012
The Evatran Plugless Power EV charging system is now, as Engadget describes, “only slightly larger than an average hubcap.” The wireless charging system for electric vehicles has gone from being almost as long as the cars it charges to being a reasonably-sized disc with a charging efficiency of about 97%. The company is testing the new charger on a fleet of Chevy Volts and plans to have them in production some time in 2012.
