AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The long charging and parking time of battery-electric vehicles results in a perceived waste of time for drivers, affecting their acceptance of the service.

Method used

By classifying driver and vehicle data of multiple battery-electric vehicles, vehicles with similar interests are identified, and routes are simultaneously planned in a computer device so that they can charge and stop together at designated charging stations and use the charging and stopping time to exchange interests.

Benefits of technology

It increases the acceptance of charging stops, makes the charging stop process more interesting and makes efficient use of waiting time through communication between drivers, and improves drivers' acceptance of battery electric vehicles.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method (8) for recommending charging stops (2) for battery electric vehicles (5) along a route (3), wherein, in a computer device (6), for multiple battery electric vehicles (5), an interest group (19) of battery electric vehicles (5) with similar driver data (15) and / or vehicle data (16) is generated based on driver data (15) and / or vehicle data (16) combined with a vehicle ID (17) for identifying the corresponding vehicle (5), wherein, each of the multiple drivers calculates a route (3) using a navigation device (11), each route including at least one charging stop (2), wherein, the calculated route (3) together with the corresponding charging stop (2) and the corresponding vehicle ID (17) is transmitted to the computer device (6), wherein, based on the vehicle ID (17), at least two vehicles (5) are identified. The two vehicles are assigned to the same interest group (18), and their respective routes (3) each have charging stops (2) that fall within similar time periods (23) and are located within a predetermined location range. The drivers of the identified vehicles (5) are informed of the option to modify the calculated route (3) such that at least one charging stop (2) in the route (3) coincides in time and location with the charging stop (2) of another vehicle (5) in the same interest group (19). The calculated routes (3) of the two vehicles (5) are modified such that the charging stops (2) of the two routes (3) that fall within similar time periods (23) and are located within the same location range coincide in location and time when at least two drivers use the option to modify the calculated route (3).
