Over the course of the projection period, it is anticipated that the use of wireless EV charging would expand due to rising demand for electric vehicles in emerging economies like China and India. Due to the growing EV buying trend, favorable government regulations to reduce vehicle emissions, and quickly developing EV infrastructure, countries like India and China are seeing an increase in demand for EVs. Over the course of the forecast period, this is expected to result in an increase in demand for wireless EV charging. Government initiatives are also anticipated to have an impact on the expansion of the electric car market in India. For instance, in March 2019, the Indian government approved the second phase of the "Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles in India" (FAME India) scheme, which aims to implement electric vehicles for shared or public transportation in the country soon and is expected to lower the cost of buying hybrid and electric cars there. During the forecast period, these factors are anticipated to fuel market expansion for wireless electric car charging.
Coherent Market Insights estimates that the market for Wireless EV Charging was estimated at $6,857.80 million in 2020, and it is anticipated to increase to US$ 207,415.10 million by 2030, with a CAGR of 41.4% between 2021 and 2030.
