Wireless charge/discharge flexible energy storage devices

A wireless charge-discharge (WCD) energy storage device, comprising:

• an integrated cathode element that includes a receiver coil element embedded within a planar cathode element, wherein the integrated cathode element includes an extended cathode contact;
• an integrated anode element that includes a transmitter coil element embedded within a planar anode element, wherein the integrated anode element includes an extended anode contact;
• and
• a switch element that i) when set to a first position establishes an electrical connection between the transmitter coil element and the extended cathode contact that permits the transmitter coil element to generate a magnetic field and ii) when set to a second position prevents the electrical connection between the transmitter coil element and the extended cathode contact such that the receiver coil element is configured to carry an induced current when the receiver coil element is positioned within a magnetic field;
• wherein the integrated anode element and the integrated cathode element, are completely contained within an encapsulating film container.
