Wireless energy transfer for photovoltaic panels

This invention describes a system where solar panels on a building's exterior, like a roof or wall, generate electricity. This electricity powers a wireless transmitter, also located on the exterior, which creates an oscillating magnetic field. This field then sends energy wirelessly to a receiver located inside the building, with the system specifically designed to efficiently extract power from the solar panels.

Why it matters: Since 2015, wireless power transfer systems have seen substantial improvements in efficiency, range, and power handling, making the concept of wirelessly moving solar energy from a building's exterior to its interior more practical and efficient. Advances in power electronics and resonant coupling have reduced losses and increased viability for such applications.
