AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Charging multiple electric vehicles simultaneously from a shared limited power supply can lead to overloading, power outages, and voltage fluctuations, while also causing inefficiencies in charging times and increased energy costs due to peak demand.

Method used

A system comprising intelligent electrical sockets connected to a limited power supply, equipped with processors, data interfaces, and power switches, which dynamically manage power distribution by controlling the activation of sockets based on real-time power consumption and user preferences, allowing for efficient charging and accurate billing.

Benefits of technology

The system effectively manages power distribution to multiple electric vehicles, preventing overloading, optimizing charging times, reducing energy costs, and ensuring fair and accurate billing by dynamically adjusting socket activity and measuring power consumption.

Abstract

A system for charging electric vehicles from a limited power supply is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of electrical sockets connected to the power supply, each socket comprising a processor, a data interface for communication with a mobile device, and a power switch that controls the connection between the power supply and the socket terminals. The system is configured to communicate with mobile devices to assign sockets to a pool of electric vehicles for charging. Additionally, the system individually controls the sockets to supply power, ensuring that only a subset of the sockets is active at any given time, thereby managing the power distribution in accordance with the limitations of the power supply.
