An example operation includes one or more of determining, by a charging station, a grade associated with an operation of a transport and allowing, by the charging station, a recharging level related to the grade and an environmental impact of the recharging level.

A use index IDX indicative of a degree of use of external charging is calculated and transmitted to a vehicle external system. The vehicle external system provides a service or imposes a penalty based on the use index IDX. In a case where the degree of use of external charging is determined to be low based on the use index IDX, if the vehicle external system provides a non-preferential service or imposes a heavy penalty as compared with a case where the degree of use of external charging is determined to be high, a driver or an owner of a vehicle takes an action by which the use index is determined to indicate, a high degree of use of external charging. As a result, the use of external charging can be promoted.

A system for charging electric vehicles (EVs) includes at least one transportable battery-energy-storage DC systems (BESDCS), at least one renewable direct-current (DC) power supply station at a first location. The system also includes at least one DC charging station for charging of the at least one EV at a second location different from the first location. The system further includes at least one electric tanker transport comprising at least one electric truck vehicle configured to be coupled to the at least one BESDCS. The electric tanker transport is configured to transport the at least one BESDCS from the first location to the second location for charging of the at least one EV and transport the at least one BESDCS from the second location to the first location for charging the at least one BESDCS from renewable DC power supply station.

A method is performed for optimizing the management of the charge of a set of electric batteries, where each battery is recharged during a time interval during which it is connected to an electricity distribution network, according to a charge profile provided by a charge aggregator, by applying, under the control of a charge manager of the battery, a charging power level. The method involves determining, on the aggregator side, as a charge profile, a distribution curve of the charge per day over a given period of time, defined for all the batteries solely according to constraints specific to the network, transmitting the charge distribution curve to each charge manager and, on the charge manager side, adapting the received charge distribution curve to the time interval during which the battery is connected to the network and to the associated charging power level.

An example operation includes one or more of determining, by a charging station, a grade associated with an operation of a transport allowing, by the charging station, a recharging level related to the grade and an pact of the recharging level.
