About

Xie Ying is a pioneering researcher in maritime electrification and wireless power transfer (WPT) systems, with a focus on integrating renewable energy into marine transportation. Her most notable contribution is the design and laboratory validation of a floating solar wireless power transfer system for electric ships, a breakthrough that addresses the critical challenge of charging vessels in dynamic maritime environments. In her 2025 paper, she introduced a novel coupling mechanism and a robotic docking system that ensures precise alignment despite wave-induced motion, achieving an impressive 82% WPT efficiency. This work, already garnering 5 citations, demonstrates scalability from yachts to larger vessels, directly supporting the decarbonization of the shipping industry. Xie’s research uniquely combines solar energy harvesting with contactless charging, offering a practical pathway to reduce reliance on fossil fuels in maritime operations. Her innovative approach to solving real-world alignment and efficiency problems under harsh sea conditions marks her as a rising leader in sustainable marine technology, with potential for significant impact on global shipping emissions.
