Industry News WAVE Installs 250 MW Wireless Charging System

Ideanomics (NASDAQ: IDEX) announced its subsidiary WAVE, a leading developer of high-power inductive charging solutions for medium and heavy-duty vehicles, has completed another transit authority deployment, adding the Twin Transit Authority (TTA) in Chehalis, Washington to its growing list of transit fleet customers. TTA has adopted and completed installation of WAVE's 250-kilowatt high-power wireless charging system to help achieve their zero-emission goals.

One of the most significant barriers mass transit agencies face in the move to zero-emission electric vehicles is matching the typical driving range of diesel buses. WAVE's automated, cable-free system will be deployed in route to extend the range of TTA's first two battery-electric buses, representing a big leap forward in the agency's goal to make its entire 20 vehicle fleet carbon-neutral by 2030.

"Our organization sees this technology as a critical component of the future of electric bus operations, and we were determined to join forces with a company that was both easy to work with and had successful models of implementation" explained Twin Transit's Executive Director Joe Clark. "WAVE's inductive charging was by far the most efficient and effective solution, and the easiest for our drivers to operate. Perhaps most importantly, WAVE was willing to be a strategic, long-term partner."
