Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for a method of managing charging of vehicles, comprising: estimating a vehicle return state based on telematics data associated with a vehicle; determining a future charging session for the vehicle based on the vehicle return state and one or more of: a vehicle attribute; a job attribute; and a station attribute; generating a hybrid set of charging sessions by adding the future charging session to a set of one or more current charging sessions; and processing the hybrid set of charging sessions with a charging management algorithm to determine one or more charging session attributes for each charging session in the hybrid set of charging sessions.
Claims20
A method of managing charging of vehicles, comprising:
- estimating a vehicle return state based on telematics data associated with a vehicle;
- determining a future charging session for the vehicle based on the vehicle return state and one or more of the following:
- a vehicle attribute;
- a job attribute;
- or
- a station attribute;
- generating a hybrid set of charging sessions by adding the future charging session to a set of one or more current charging sessions;
- and
- processing the hybrid set of charging sessions with a charging management algorithm to determine a charging session attribute for each charging session in the hybrid set of charging sessions.
A processing system, comprising:
- a memory comprising computer-executable instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the computer-executable instructions and cause the processing system to perform at least the following:
- estimate a vehicle return state based on telematics data associated with a vehicle;
- determine a future charging session for the vehicle based on the vehicle return state and one or more of the following:
- a vehicle attribute;
- a job attribute;
- or
- a station attribute;
- generate a hybrid set of charging sessions by adding the future charging session to a set of one or more current charging sessions;
- and
- process the hybrid set of charging sessions with a charging management algorithm to determine one or more charging session attributes for each charging session in the hybrid set of charging sessions.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a processing system, cause the processing system to perform at least the following:
- estimate a vehicle return state based on telematics data associated with a vehicle;
- determine a future charging session for the vehicle based on the vehicle return state and one or more of the following:
- a vehicle attribute;
- a job attribute;
- or
- a station attribute;
- generate a hybrid set of charging sessions by adding the future charging session to a set of one or more current charging sessions;
- and
- process the hybrid set of charging sessions with a charging management algorithm to determine one or more charging session attributes for each charging session in the hybrid set of charging sessions.
