Currently the most common method on the market to charge electric vehicles is to plug in the electric vehicle to a power source. Wireless charging technologies are also being developed and infrastructure has begun to be rolled out into the marketplace. Designing separate charging systems for wireless and wired systems may lead to drawbacks as not all chargers will be compatible with all vehicles. The invention described herein illustrates a system for bridging the gap between wired and wireless charging infrastructure through the use of a multi-mode electric vehicle charging system capable of delivering power through a plurality of transmission methods, where one of those methods is wireless power transfer.
