Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for replenishing the power source of a user vehicle. The system may comprise at least one power source transport vehicle, the power source transport vehicle having at least one power source container; a vendor device; and a platform having at least a vendor interface for display on the vendor device and a user interface for display on a user device. The platform receives a user request through the user interface regarding the user vehicle. The power source transport vehicle is then deployed to the location of the vehicle based on the user request and replenishes the power source of the user vehicle based on the user request.

A method for replenishing a power source of a user vehicle, comprising providing a platform having a user interface accessible with a user device, and, using the platform:
- receiving a user request for power source replenishment services for a user vehicle at a first location;
- displaying information about the user request on the user device;
- coordinating the user request with a power source replenishment vendor;
- navigating the user vehicle to a second location;
- navigating the user vehicle to a power source replenishment station at the second location;
- and
- directing a vendor at the second location to replenish an amount of power source on the user vehicle from an amount of power source stored by the vendor at the power source replenishment station.
A method for replenishing a power source of a user vehicle, comprising:
- providing a platform having a user interface accessible via a user device and a vendor interface accessible via a vendor device, the platform configured for coordinating a user request for power replenishment with a vendor;
- and
- upon receiving a user request for power replenishment, navigating the user vehicle to a vendor location and navigating the user vehicle to a power source replenishment station at the vendor location;
- wherein one of navigating the user vehicle to the vendor location and navigating the user vehicle to the power source replenishment station at the vendor location is done autonomously.
A system for replenishing a power source of a user vehicle, the system comprising:
- a power source replenishment station, the power source replenishment station having a first power source container for containing a first power source;
- a vendor device;
- and
- a platform having a vendor interface for display on the vendor device and a user interface for display on a user device,
- wherein the platform receives a user request through the user interface regarding the user vehicle and displays information regarding the user request through the vendor interface;
- wherein the platform coordinates the power source replenishment station and the user vehicle to the same location and the power source of the user vehicle is replenished from the first power source container based on the user request.
