Managing electric vehicle loads on an electric grid

A system for managing loads applied to an electric grid by electric vehicles, the system comprising:

• an information module that accesses information identifying states of charging events for a fleet of electric vehicles at multiple charging stations, the multiple charging stations coupled to an electric grid and providing charge to the fleet of electric vehicles;
• a grid condition module that determines the information identifying the states of the charging events for the fleet of electric vehicles at the multiple charging stations coupled to the electric grid indicates a load condition predicted to be applied to the electric grid is above a predetermined threshold condition of the electric grid;
• and
• an action module that performs an action in response to determining the condition of the electric grid is above the predetermined threshold condition of the electric grid.

A method for managing loads applied to an electric grid by electric vehicles, the system comprising:

• accessing information identifying states of charging events for multiple electric vehicles at multiple charging stations, the multiple charging stations coupled to an electric grid and providing charge to the multiple electric vehicles;
• determining that the information identifying the states of the charging events for the multiple electric vehicles at the multiple charging stations coupled to the electric grid indicates a predicted load condition predicted for the electric grid is above a predetermined threshold condition for the electric grid;
• and
• performing an action in response to determining the predicted load condition of the electric grid is above the predetermined threshold condition of the electric grid.
