Wireless EV Charging Pioneer InductEV Opens Second U.S. Location in Long Beach, CA
Company is Poised to Advance its Wireless Technology with Port and Intermodal Rail Terminals, Drayage, and Middle-Mile Logistics
KING OF PRUSSIA, PA, April 9 – In the wake of the EPA’s proposed new rules to jump-start sales of heavy-duty electric trucks, wireless EV charging pioneer InductEV today opened its second U.S. location in Long Beach, California. The company is fresh off news that Seattle’s transit agency will adopt its technology -- the seventh such deployment in the state of Washington. The new Long Beach office is staffed by a team of industry veterans who will seek to accelerate the use of high-power, on-route inductive wireless charging.
“Our decision to set up operations in Long Beach makes perfect sense given California’s aggressive efforts to electrify the economy toward its goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2045,” said M. David Dealy, InductEV’s President and Chief Commercial Officer. “The team we have in place in Long Beach is unmatched in its knowledge of what’s entailed in reducing emissions from some of the heaviest polluters in the transit, commercial, and goods movement industries. InductEV’s wireless inductive, on-route charging technology has already shown its value in the municipal transit sector. We’re poised to do the same for ports, freight terminals, and intermodal facilities.”
The new office, located at the World Trade Center in downtown Long Beach, marks InductEV’s second physical location in the U.S. after its technical center of excellence in King of Prussia, PA outside of Philadelphia. The three executives leading the office have impeccable credentials working to decarbonize North America’s two largest port facilities – the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach. They include:
Samantha Galltin, Executive Vice President, Operations, joined the Company in February 2024, after serving for nearly three years as Managing Director of Commercial Operations for the Port of Long Beach. This followed over 13 years with BNSF Railway, most recently as Director of Port Business Development. Samantha has her BA degree in Communication from Villanova University and a Masters Degree in Global Supply Chain Management from the University of Southern California.
Greg White, Chief Revenue Officer, North America Ports, joined InductEV at the beginning of 2024. His background includes executive-level roles at Ports America, SSA Marine, Maersk, UASC, and INTTRA. He has also served on the executive teams at several logistics and supply chain technology companies and has provided consulting and advisory services to private equity and venture/growth investors in the space. Greg holds an MBA in Finance from the Thunderbird School of Global Management and a BA from Michigan State University.
Tim DeMoss joined InductEV in January 2024 as Director of Port and Intermodal Strategies after nearly 17 years with the Port of Los Angeles where he managed the Air Quality team as an Environmental Affairs Officer. Tim holds an M.S. in Civil Engineering with an emphasis on Environmental Science and a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles.
InductEV’s 75kW to 450kW vehicle/ground assembly unit delivers a high-power, high-speed solution that allows vehicles to charge while on route. It has tremendous advantages over both diesel-fueled trucks and traditional conductive (plug-in) EV charging models. Among them:
Eliminating greenhouse gas emissions from idling trucks burning diesel fuel
Reducing a port’s premium real estate allocated for wired charging stations
Higher vehicle utilization, i.e., less downtime through inductive, on-route charging
Lower operating costs due to virtually no maintenance of vehicles and chargers
No cables or charging pedestals, enhancing driver safety with a minimal footprint
Daytime, on-route charging using renewable energy sources versus more costly fossil fuel-generated electricity produced at peak times
Fast-activation, automated/background charging starting in less than 2 seconds after the vehicle is parked
