A mission management system for a heavy-duty vehicle, including processing circuitry configured to: receive a request for a transport mission; identify one or more available routes; identify, along said one or more available routes, energy supply stations which are suitable for re-supplying energy to the heavy-duty vehicle and which have available un-booked time slots for such re-supplying of energy; determine, for at least one available un-booked time slot of at least one of the identified energy supply stations, a probability of missing that time slot due to the heavy-duty vehicle arriving late to the energy supply station; select, based on the determined probability, a route and an energy re-supply plan associated thereto, for the heavy-duty vehicle for accomplishing said transport mission; and present the selected route and associated energy re-supply plan to a user interface and/or provide the selected route and associated energy re-supply plan for storage in a memory.

Method for authenticating a motor vehicle (13) at a hydrogen fuel pump (11), characterized by the following features: the motor vehicle (13) is identified based on an identifier fitted in the interior (14) of the motor vehicle (13). a key is retrieved from the motor vehicle (13) by the mobile phone (12) via a radio link, the key is transferred to the hydrogen fuel pump (11) by means of an NFC transceiver (15) and a link, which is encrypted with the key, is built up to the motor vehicle (13) by the hydrogen fuel pump (11) via a wireless computer network (16).

A vehicle includes a battery, one or more fuel tanks, and a controller. The controller performs operations including: receiving data indicative of a location of a refueling station relative to a current location of the vehicle; receiving data indicative of a state of charge of the battery; receiving data indicative of a fuel level of each fuel tank; determining an amount of energy to arrive at the refueling station from the current location; based on the location of the refueling station, the state of charge of the battery, the fuel level of at least one of the one or more fuel tanks, and the determined amount of energy, selecting at least one fuel tank to refill; and preconditioning the selected at least one fuel tank by converting fuel from the selected at least one fuel tank from a first form of energy to a second form of energy.

The present invention relates to an autonomous refilling base for agricultural robots, designed to increase their autonomy and enable continuous operation without human intervention. The base uses an automatic camera-guided navigation system to connect to the robot and perform maintenance and supplying. It has tanks for storing various products, such as herbicides and insecticides, and decontaminates the robot and its pipes. With solar panels and batteries, the base is energetically self-sufficient and equipped with RTK GPS, and an internet connection, ensuring precise operation and real-time synchronization.

An integrated fuel management system can include a switching unit coupled to an electric vehicle (EV) charging station, a computer system, a first electronic unit, and a second electronic unit. The first electronic unit can be coupled to the switching unit and operable for providing state information for the EV charging station to the computer system. The second electronic unit can be coupled to a fueling station for types of vehicles that use fuel and operable for providing state information for the fueling station to the computer system. Further, the computer system can be operable for displaying the state information for the EV charging station and for displaying the state information for the fueling station.
