Abstract: Recent fossil fuel shortages and global warming related problems have caused a substantial shift from internal combustion engine vehicles towards EVs. This paper explores the thorough review of battery charging infrastructure from wired connection to on-road wireless charging for an EV. The initial part of the paper deals with the wired charging and its power electronics infrastructure. The later portion deals with the wireless charging where both static and On-Road types are discussed. Furthermore, various aspects of wireless power transfer are also discussed. The Market scenario and future growth prospects are reviewed and presented in last section of the paper.

Key words: Wired charging, static WPT, on-road WPT
