System for capacitively driving a load

A capacitive driving system (100) comprises: -a supply device (10) comprising a power generator (13), capacitive transmission electrodes (11, 12) and preferably at least one inductor (16) connected in series between the power generator and at least one of said transmission electrodes; -at least one load device (20) comprising two capacitive receiver electrodes (21, 22) and at least one load member (23) coupled to said receiver electrodes. For resonant energy transfer, the supply device and the load device have an energy transfer position in which a first one of said transmission electrodes together with a first one of said receiver electrodes defines a first transfer capacitor (31) while simultaneously a second one of said transmission electrodes together with a second one of said receiver electrodes defines a second transfer capacitor (32). At least one auxiliary capacitance (111; 112; 121; 122) is connected in series with inductor and load.
