A system and method for wirelessly transmitting power through a window comprising transmitting and receiving coils or electrodes, which are embedded in or otherwise mounted with respect to flexible polymer suction cups. The transmitting and receiving coils or electrodes are arranged opposite one another on the interior and exterior of the window, respectively, via attachment of the suction cups thereon. Power provided to the transmitting coil or electrode, for example from an auxiliary power adapter of a vehicle, may be transmitted through the window by inductive coupling or capacitive coupling. The power provided to the receiving coil or electrode can then be used to power external devices such as taxi roof signs, lighted advertising signs, spotlights and other auxiliary off-road lights, trailer tail lights, emergency and warning lights, speakers, cameras, battery chargers, and packages of scientific instruments for measuring air pollutants and various environmental factors such as weather parameters.
