An efficient power transmitting terminal, a contactless power transmission device and a power transmission method are disclosed herein. By adjusting the equivalent output impedance of the DC-AC voltage converter through a soft-switching control circuit composed of an inductor or an inductor and a capacitor, the equivalent output impedance is maintained at inductive impedance. According to the feature of current of inductive impedance lagging behind the voltage, the voltage of the switching device in the DC-AC voltage converter reduces to zero before switching-on, to achieve zero-voltage switching-on.
