Wireless Charging Lanes Planned in European Cities by 2026
Several European cities are piloting wireless charging lanes for EVs, aiming for full-scale rollout by 2026. Embedded coils under road surfaces transfer energy directly to vehicles in motion, reducing the need for stationary charging. This complements existing infrastructure such as dynamic load management systems already used by CPOs.
Why Wireless Lanes Matter
Reduced Congestion: Less waiting at public chargers as cars charge while driving.
Fleet Advantage: Public transport and logistics fleets benefit from continuous energy supply.
Urban Planning: Wireless charging integrates seamlessly into smart city strategies.
Outlook for 2026
Analysts expect at least five European capitals to introduce wireless charging lanes by 2026. To ensure interoperability, operators will need robust API integration and device compatibility checks.
Cities planning their next-generation transport infrastructure should evaluate white-label charging solutions today.
