Problems solved by technology

However, the radius of action may be limited in certain situations, and recharging its battery may - depending on the situation - be time consuming
Furthermore, the lack of standardization constrains the placement of charging stations
Also, battery handling, especially charging and discharging, has a big impact on its cycle life, and charging stations are often not well suited to work with a variety of batteries
Several solutions have been proposed to (partially) solve the above problems, but none of them are satisfactory

example 1

[0027] Example 1: When the power source formed by the grid has less available power than the needs of multiple vehicles, the grid power can be spread over the charging output, for example according to the priority that the vehicles will drive away. This priority can be entered in the system by a user application connected via an API to the configuration device or data processing device. This application of the system could be an advanced fleet management software system or a simple user interface where the user can enter how long they have before they have to drive away again. The available grid power may be known to pre-programmed settings in the data processing equipment, or through an API interacting with the grid provider's software (smart grid). Energy exchange settings are dynamically changed (optimized) in real time as inputs or changes occur anywhere in the system. The distribution of power from the grid to the vehicles can be proportional or disproportionate, and can...

example 2

[0028]Example 2: The system (in particular a data processing device or a configuration device) is capable of interacting through APIs between billing and payment applications running at computers of utilities or other energy providers. Likewise, the system can limit the amount of charging power at a particular charging outlet based on the type of subscription the user has for energy delivery. A premium subscription may for example mean that the vehicle is able to receive 50 kW of charging power and be charged very quickly, while a basic subscription may mean that the user can only receive 20 kW and be charged more slowly.

example 3

[0029] Example 3: If the system has energy exchange ports (power outlets) for the vehicle and one energy exchange port for the power supply, such as an AC input, the system is able to calculate the power distribution on the power outlets. Likewise, one needs only 1 officially certified AC energy consumption meter at the input and still know how much energy goes to each power outlet.

Abstract

The invention relates to a system for exchanging energy with an electric vehicle, in particular with its battery, comprising: at least one energy exchange station comprising at least one port for exchanging energy with an energy source, at least one port for exchanging energy with the vehicle One port, at least one port for data communication with the vehicle, at least one port for data communication with the data processing device; the data processing device includes at least one port for data communication with the energy exchange station, for At least one port for data communication with at least one configuration device, at least one configuration device comprising at least one port for exchanging data with a data processing device, and means for editing configuration details, such as a user interface. The invention also relates to a method and a device for exchanging energy with an electric vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to exchanging energy with electric vehicles. Electric vehicles may include road vehicles such as cars or motorcycles, vehicles for indoor use or worksite use such as (forklift) trucks, and even vehicles for transport on water, on rail tracks or in the air. Background technique [0002] As a result of environmental awareness and limited organic fuel sources, interest in electric vehicles, ie vehicles that include electric engines for providing propulsion, is growing. Electric vehicles have the distinct advantage of high power efficiency when compared to vehicles with internal combustion engines, and that they do not cause polluting emissions at the location where they are used. However, the radius of action may be limited in certain circumstances and charging its battery may - depending on the circumstances - be time consuming. Furthermore, the lack of standardization constrains the placement of charging stations. Also, the hand...
