Mobase Electronics, a manufacturer of electrical components, announced that it has registered as a participant in Saudi Arabia's New Murabah urban development project and plans to begin global cooperation to build wireless charging infrastructure for vehicles.
New Murabah is a futuristic smart city being built northwest of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with a target completion date of 2030. Since 2023, Mobase Electronics has been supplying electrical components and collaborating with Shear Motors, an electric vehicle company invested in by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund. Now, the company has expanded its scope of cooperation by registering as a participating company in three urban development projects, including New Murabah.
At the invitation of Shear Motors, Mobase Electronics will attend the Saudi Arabian Sovereign Wealth Fund-hosted Private Sector Forum, starting February 7th. During the forum, the company plans to meet with its urban developers to discuss potential orders for its electrical products, including smart power distribution systems, which are currently under development.
In particular, the forum will be used as an opportunity to discuss ways to supply wireless charging infrastructure for vehicles to Saudi Arabian urban development projects, and to promote the establishment of an integrated charging ecosystem linked to electric vehicles produced by Sea Motors.
Currently, Mobase Electronics has received a contract from Shea Motors to conduct research and development on an integrated wireless charging solution for electric vehicles, with the goal of completing development by May 2027. The company anticipates that after development is complete and final testing has been completed, mass production will begin within one to two years, driven by the customer.
A Mobase Electronics official stated that beyond the collaboration with Shea Motors, the company has completed registration as a participant in the Saudi Arabian urban development project and is continuing discussions to select an official business operator in the future.
He explained that through discussions with Saudi urban developers, he plans to secure orders for ground-mounted wireless charging transmitters, charging stations that handle charging protocol control and power management, and smart power distribution devices that can be integrated with battery management systems. In the long term, he also aims to supply products linked to autonomous driving charging platforms.
The company's strategy is to strengthen its technological competitiveness in the global wireless charging market by providing an end-to-end solution that goes beyond integrated wireless charging solutions for electric vehicles to encompass fully unmanned autonomous driving charging scenarios.
