An electric machine and a power supply system, in which a battery pack can be easily and safely replaced with another, and electric power can be transferred with high transfer efficiency. An electric machine of the present invention includes a driving electric motor, a battery pack for supplying electric power to the driving electric motor, and an energy transfer section for transferring electric energy output from the battery pack to the driving electric motor. The battery pack includes a first antenna for receiving electric power from a power supply source located outside the electric machine by coupling with a first resonant magnetic field generated by the power supply source, at least one secondary battery charged by the electric power received by the first antenna, an oscillator for producing radio-frequency power by DC power discharged from the secondary battery, and a second antenna for generating a second resonant magnetic field by the radio-frequency power. The energy transfer section includes a third antenna that couples with the second resonant magnetic field generated by the second antenna, and transfers the radio-frequency power received by the third antenna to the driving electric motor.
