Solution Overview
Problem
Current energy management systems do not effectively consider the differences between various power sources when managing energy for electric vehicles, particularly in promoting the use of renewable energy sources over exhaustible ones.
Innovation Solution
A charging infrastructure information providing system that evaluates and preferentially highlights charging stations contributing significantly to the supply of renewable energy, encouraging users to choose infrastructure that uses low-environmental-load energy sources.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If charging infrastructure information is provided without differentiation, then all users receive equal information, but the promotion of renewable energy usage is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating information provision based on the specific attributes of power sources. Charging infrastructures are categorized according to their power source characteristics (renewable vs. exhaustible), and users receive tailored information recommendations based on their vehicle attributes and preferences. This resolves the contradiction by making the information system selectively complex only where needed to promote renewable energy, rather than uniformly complex across all information provision.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of information provision from uniform to differentiated based on power source attributes. By introducing classification parameters (renewable/exhaustible energy types) and matching parameters (vehicle battery type, charging speed requirements), the system dynamically adjusts which charging infrastructure information is prioritized for each user, thereby promoting renewable energy usage without requiring complete system redesign.
2Reliability
If charging infrastructure information is differentiated by power source attributes, then renewable energy usage is promoted, but information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments charging infrastructure information into distinct categories based on power source attributes (renewable energy types, exhaustible energy types). This segmentation allows the system to process and evaluate information in manageable groups rather than as a single complex dataset. By dividing the information provision task into segmented categories, the system achieves reliable sustainable energy promotion while controlling processing complexity through structured classification.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary classification mechanism that mediates between raw charging infrastructure data and user information needs. The system acts as an intermediary by automatically categorizing charging infrastructures according to power source attributes and matching them with user preferences, thereby reducing the complexity burden on both the information processing system and the user decision-making process while ensuring reliable promotion of sustainable energy options.
3Measurement precision
If users are provided with detailed power source information, then energy selection accuracy improves, but information transmission load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential power source attributes needed for accurate energy selection (renewable vs. exhaustible classification, basic energy type) from the complete set of available charging infrastructure data. By taking out only the critical information elements required for sustainable energy promotion and user matching, the system achieves high energy attribute identification accuracy while minimizing information transmission load by excluding redundant detailed data.
