Technology for “wireless power transfer” (WPT) has advanced greatly in recent years, especially when used for renewable power sources. Environmental issues and the growing need for renewable energy sources have prompted a great deal of study in this area. This report provided an overview of the evolution of WPT technologies for renewable energy systems, including their advantages, disadvantages, and future possibilities. An introduction to WTP’s foundational ideas is provided, including techniques such as resonant pairing, capacitive connection, and microwave-based approaches. It delves into how these systems have been modified and improved to facilitate the long-distance transmission of renewable energy sources like wind and solar power. The study emphasizes the benefits of WPT in renewable energy systems, such as improved convenience, lower maintenance costs, and the opportunity to lessen negative effects on the environment. Problems with WPT technology in renewable energy applications are also analyzed critically. Power loss in transmission, misalignment, and electromagnetic interference are all examples of technical difficulties, and these are on top of the financial and legal obstacles. WPT’s effects on humans and animals are also explored since they must be taken into account before broad use of the technology.
