NMSU QKOIL™ Capstone Team Earns “Most Outstanding Project” Award for Advancing Overhead Wireless Charging Innovation
The 2025–2026 New Mexico State University QKOIL™ Capstone Team recently reached an exciting milestone, earning a total of $4,000 and the “Most Outstanding Project” award at the NMSU Interdisciplinary Engineering Capstone Design Program Showcase held on May 1, 2026, in Las Cruces. This recognition marks the culmination of a year-long collaboration between QKOIL™ and a talented group of senior engineering students (Dereck Alberto Gastelum Renpenning, Andrea Gallegos Quintana, Pedro Alfonso Garcia Carrer, and Alejandro Holguin Prado) who took on real-world challenges in wireless charging infrastructure.
QKOIL™ Overhead Wireless Charging System Powers the Future of Autonomous Vehicle Hubs
As the world moves toward autonomous transportation, the need for automated, efficient, and wireless EV charging solutions is greater than ever. The QKOIL™ overhead inductive wireless charging system from EV Charging Solutions is designed to meet this demand by enabling hands-free, fully automated charging for autonomous vehicles and electric mobility systems.
EV Charging Solutions, LLC Files New U.S. Patent Application Covering Expanded Capabilities of the QKOIL™ Overhead Inductive Wireless Charging System
This latest patent application builds on EV Charging Solutions’ growing intellectual property portfolio surrounding the QKOIL™ overhead inductive wireless charging platform. The QKOIL™ system features a gantry charging architecture that supports automated positioning and deployment of a charge transmitting coil from an overhead support structure. The transmitting coil can be selectively lowered toward a corresponding receiving coil located on or within a target electric mobility system, enabling automatic, contactless charging without the need for human intervention, manual cable handling, or precise vehicle alignment.
