People are buying more electric vehicles (EVs) because the world wants to use less fossil fuels and deal with the environmental problems caused by air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. However, building a strong and effective charging infrastructure is a major obstacle to the widespread use of electric vehicles (EVs). While traditional plug-in charging methods work, they often have problems with user convenience, maintenance, and safety. Wireless charging systems (WCS) have emerged as a promising alternative to these issues. WCS uses inductively coupled power transfer (ICPT) technology to let users transfer energy without touching it. This makes it easier for users and reduces wear and tear on mechanical connectors. This paper discusses the design and construction of a wireless charging system for electric vehicles (EVs) using ICPT. Using MATLAB/Simulink, a detailed simulation model is made to test how well the proposed system works in different situations. We look at important performance metrics like how well energy is transferred and how stable the system is. The simulation results show that the ICPT-based WCS is a reliable and effective way to charge EVs. This means it has significant potential for use in urban transport networks in the future.
