ESTIMATION AND MANAGEMENT OF LOADS IN ELECTRIC VEHICLE NETWORKS

摘要

Methods and systems are presented for predicting demand for battery services in an electric vehicle network. The predicted demand may be used for managing the electric vehicle network, for example, by adjusting battery policies in order to provide improved battery services to users of electric vehicles. The battery policies can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing battery charging rates within the electric vehicle network, and recommending alternative battery service locations to users of vehicles who might otherwise choose a congested battery service location.
