WIRELESSLY NOTIFYING A TRANSPORT TO PROVIDE A PORTION OF ENERGY
An example operation includes one or more of wirelessly notifying, via a charging station, at least one transport of a group of identified transports of a needed amount of energy stored in the at least one transport prior to the at least one transport being connected to the charging station.
AVAILABLE CAPACITY-BASED BILLING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VEHICLE BATTERIES
An available capacity-based billing system includes a vehicle including a battery, and a battery controller configured to determine a maximum value and a minimum value of a state of charge (SOC) of the battery based on settings of an available capacity of the battery, a user terminal configured to receive a capacity setting change request including a setting change amount of the available capacity and then to transmit the capacity setting change request, and a server configured to receive the capacity setting change request transmitted by the user terminal and to determine a battery usage fee corresponding to the setting change amount of the available capacity included in the received capacity setting change request.
BATTERY FAULT DETECTION
A control system, responsive to receiving values of one or more parameters of a battery of a vehicle for a particular time in service, generates via a machine learning determination a level of confidence at which the values of the one or more parameters of the battery match values of one or more parameters of a set of batteries for a same time in service, and responsive to the level exceeding a predefined threshold, causes a mitigation action to be implemented.
BATTERY SWAPPING METHOD, SERVER AND BATTERY INSTALLING-AND-REMOVING DEVICE
The embodiments of the application provide a battery swapping method, a server and a battery installing-and-removing device. The battery swapping method comprising: receiving battery swapping status information of an electric vehicle; sending a battery removing instruction to a battery installing-and-removing device based on the battery swapping status information; sending a battery installation instruction to the battery installing-and-removing device when detecting that the first battery is transported to the first position; receiving the battery installation information sent by the battery installing-and-removing device; sending a battery swapping completion instruction to the electric vehicle based on the battery installation information.
Systems, methods and apparatus for vehicle battery charging
A system for charging a battery within an at least partially electric vehicle. The system includes a charging device wherein the charging device configured to electrically connect to the at least partially electric vehicle and charge at least one battery by a predetermined amount. The system also includes a network configured to determine the location of the charging device.
CHARGING CONTROL METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM, SERVER, AND MEDIUM
Embodiments of this application provide a charging control method, apparatus, and system, a server, and a medium. In an example method, a generation sequence of a charging policy stored in a first terminal and a generation sequence of a charging policy stored in a second terminal are compared in the first terminal, to determine a relatively new charging policy in the first terminal and the second terminal as a target charging policy. The target charging policy may subsequently configure a charging parameter, so that the charging parameter configured in a charging process is adapted to a current performance status of a power battery of a vehicle.
APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR CHARGING AN ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT
A system for charging an electric aircraft. The system includes an electric aircraft port, at least a current conductor, a power supply circuit and a controller. The electric aircraft port is configured to mate with a charging connector. At least a portion of the at least a current conductor is at the electric aircraft port. The at least a current conductor is configured to conduct a charging current to at least an energy source of the electric aircraft. The power supply circuit is electrically connected to the at least a current conductor. The power supply circuit is configured to regulate the charging current supplied to the at least an energy source. The controller is communicatively connected to the power supply circuit. The controller is configured to control operation of the power supply circuit as a function of a power threshold. A method for charging an electric aircraft is also provided.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGING A WORKSITE BASED ON BATTERY POWER
Systems and methods determine a current production rate of a piece of equipment processing first paving material at a worksite, receive first information indicative of an amount of power within a battery of the piece of equipment, receive second information indicative of a characteristic of the worksite, and determine predicted production rate of the piece of equipment to process second paving material at the worksite. The systems and methods further determine an amount of power required by the piece of equipment to process the second paving material at the worksite and determine that the amount of power within the battery of the piece of equipment is insufficient for the amount of power required by the piece of equipment to process the second paving material at the worksite.
Electric vehicle based micro grid identification for on-demand power supply
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies are being adopted to reduce peak demand and to take over as energy sources during grid instability. It is necessary to estimate attributes of electric vehicle trips and residual battery charge in order to correctly predict spatio-temporal availability of energy from EVs to form a micro grid. However, it may not be feasible to get the required attributes for all vehicles in a city-scale traffic scenario. Embodiments of the present disclosure and system address the problem of accurately estimating the local energy reserve that is available from parked EVs during a given time of the day. In addition, the system also determines which neighborhoods have the potential to form micro grids using the parked EVs during a given time period. This will help grid operator(s) to plan and design smart grids which can create EV-powered micro grids in neighborhoods during periods of peak demand or during disruptions.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CHARGING ELECTRIC VEHICLES
A charging service for electric vehicles is provided. The charging service may allow electric vehicles to be charged when certain conditions are met (e.g., at certain times, when certain battery charge levels are reached, when located at certain sites, etc.), without users of these electric vehicles having to charge the vehicles themselves. Other features pertaining to charging of electric vehicles are also provided, such as an application for estimating a driving range (e.g., distance and/or time) available with a current battery charge level of an electric vehicle.
