From Cafés to Airports: The Global Rollout of Wireless Charging Zones
For decades, public spaces were designed around wall sockets. The next wave flips that logic: power simply exists where you are. From coffee counters to airport lounges, 48-V wireless charging zones are reshaping how people work, wait, and move.
The Next Evolution of Power Is Happening in Public
The outlet hunt is becoming a relic. With safe, high-efficiency resonant fields built into furniture and infrastructure, tables and seating can deliver energy invisibly. Set your laptop down and it just starts charging — no bricks, no cables, no friction.
Why Airports, Hotels, and Retail Are Leading
These venues compete on experience. Wireless zones remove outlet bottlenecks, reduce maintenance, and unlock clean, cable-free layouts. Designers gain freedom. Operators gain happier guests — and more productive spaces.
Built for the 48-V Future
Charge Fog’s ecosystem pairs Halo Transmitters (room-scale resonant fields) with Hybrid Pads (desk-level high-efficiency pads) and compact PD Bridge Receivers. Together, they power laptops, tablets, and accessories across work zones — from cafés and coworking spaces to airport lounges and university libraries.
What Adoption Looks Like
Early pilots standardize wireless tables in priority areas: check-in lounges, café benches, boarding gates, learning hubs. Analytics confirm utilization while facilities teams phase out cluttered outlet bars and USB kiosks.

Is 48-V wireless power safe around people?
Yes. The system operates within established exposure limits and uses field-aware control that prioritizes safety while maintaining efficient power delivery.
Will it work with my current laptop?
Most laptops connect via a compact PD Bridge Receiver today, with native wireless-ready devices on the roadmap as OEMs reduce reliance on charge ports.
What does installation involve?
Halo units mount discretely to ceilings or fixtures, while Hybrid Pads integrate into tables. Zones are modular and can be fitted during refreshes or new builds.
