Members will not charge royalties for patents that are essential for implementing low power receivers. A wireless power receiver is a 'low power receiver' when it is a consumer product, such as a mobile phone or battery, capable of receiving no more than 5 Watt from a wireless power transmitter. These royalty-free licenses are available until 2014.

The technology is capable of carrying 10 times as much power as copper wires of the same size, while also being able to automatically adapt to power surges and disruptions from lightning strikes, heat waves, and traffic accidents, even sabotage. A single superconductor cable can replace 12 copper cable bundles, freeing up more space underground for other utility needs like water, natural gas, or phone service.
