The global wireless charging market size is anticipated to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the growing adoption of this technology in consumer electronics devices globally.
Wireless charging is also known as inductive charging, can be defined as the method of transferring electricity without the use of a wire or wirelessly. It is based on the electromagnetic induction concept, in which an electric current is passed through a coiled wire, creating an electromagnetism field surrounding the magnet, and the power generated is then used to transmit charge. It is used in various applications for charging electronic devices, such as smart wearable watches, smartphones, medical devices tablets, vehicles, and others.

Wireless charging has a numerous advantage, including the absence of sparks or electrical shock. It is also rust-free and has water-repellent properties. In comparison to a cable charger, it also uses less energy. The COVID-19 outbreak has brought negative impact on the market. Due to the lockdown imposed by governments globally, manufacturers related to wireless charging technology faced supply chain disruptions, which is likely to hamper the wireless charging market growth. The market is expected to recover soon as several industries resumed their operation owing to subsiding the COVID cases gradually worldwide.
