Abstract
Methods, systems, and products charge a battery in a vehicle. A charging station and the vehicle negotiate charging parameters. When the vehicle receives electrical power from the charging station, the vehicle checks the electrical power for the parameters. Should the electrical power fail to exhibit the parameters, charging is terminated.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a charging station, a cellular identifier associated with a mobile device;
- generating, by the charging station, a security credential based on the cellular identifier associated with the mobile device;
- receiving, by the charging station, an electrical power from an electrical grid;
- generating, by the charging station, a transformed electrical power according to the cellular identifier associated with the mobile device;
- and
- sending, by the charging station, the transformed electrical power to an electric vehicle.

A system, comprising:
- a hardware processor;
- and
- a memory device, the memory device storing executable instructions which, responsive to being executed by the hardware processor, causes the hardware processor to perform operations comprising:
- pairing an electric vehicle charging station with a mobile device;
- in response to the pairing of the electric vehicle charging station with the mobile device, receiving a radio frequency identifier broadcast by an electric vehicle;
- receiving an electrical power from an electrical grid;
- generating a transformed electrical power according to the radio frequency identifier broadcast by the electric vehicle;
- and
- sending the transformed electrical power from the electric vehicle charging station to charge the electric vehicle.
