However, the existing charging infrastructure faces many challenges, especially in terms of grid load management, energy efficiency optimization and service reliability. The peaks and valleys of charging demand do not always match the power supply capacity of the grid, resulting in insufficient power supply during high-demand periods and energy waste during low-demand periods. In addition, grid failures or instability often lead to interruptions in the charging process, affecting user experience and the availability of electric vehicles.

[0003] Existing technologies mainly focus on improving the construction efficiency of charging stations and expanding network coverage, and pay less attention to how to intelligently manage the charging process to cope with grid fluctuations and the diversity of user behavior. The monitoring and management of power quality during the charging process are usually insufficient, and cannot effectively prevent or mitigate equipment damage and battery performance degradation caused by problems such as voltage fluctuations and harmonic pollution. In addition, there is a lack of effective demand response mechanisms to smooth grid loads and reduce pressure during peak hours.
