In this episode of the AviationPros Podcast, Jenny Lescohier of Ground Support Worldwide talks with our CEO, Joe Benz, about WiTricity’s groundbreaking work in wireless electric vehicle charging. Joe shares the story of how our technology evolved from MIT research in 2007 into real-world solutions that make charging electric vehicles—from golf carts to heavy-duty trucks—safer, easier, and completely wireless. Using magnetic resonance technology, our system allows vehicles to charge over a gap without any cables or connectors, transforming the way fleets and ground support equipment operate.
Joe also explains how our wireless charging systems are simple to install, robust, and designed for commercial and fleet use, while eliminating the common challenges of traditional wired systems. He dives into the efficiency, safety, and total cost-of-ownership benefits our technology brings, as well as what the future holds for electric mobility—including OEM integration, autonomous fleets, and global adoption of wireless standards. This conversation gives aviation professionals a firsthand look at how WiTricity is shaping the future of electric vehicle operations and making daily charging effortless for fleets everywhere.
