Winning Third Prize at Student Project Design Competition at the IEEE Wireless Power Technology Conference and Expo 2025

Dr Ben ZHANG (Postdoc), Mr WANG Xiaosheng (PhD), Mr WANG Yibo (PhD), Mr YANG Junhui (PhD), and Mr ZHU Zhaozheng (PhD) have won the Third Prize at Student Project Design Competition at the IEEE Wireless Power Technology Conference and Expo (WPTCE) 2025 organized by IEEE Power Electronics Society. The winning project, supervised by Prof Derrick Jiang, is titled “A Magnetic Coupler with Novel Laminated Cores for 11.1 kVA High-power Inductive Power Transfer.”

WPTCE2025 is the largest event in the world for wireless power research and industry engagement, covering a wide range of topics, applications, frequencies, and power levels. The competition encourages young generations to join research and development of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) technologies, and demonstrates WPT capabilities for promoting public acceptance and practical applications of WPT systems.
