A gateway apparatus includes a managing unit, an assigning unit, a receiving unit, a generating unit and a transmitting unit. The managing unit manages at least one storage battery group including a set of one or more storage battery systems selected from a plurality of storage battery systems. The assigning unit assigns a first storage battery group, which is one of the at least one storage battery group, to a first charge/discharge instruction apparatus. The receiving unit receives an instruction related to charge or discharge from the first charge/discharge instruction apparatus. The generating unit generates a first control order that is a control order for the storage battery systems belonging to the first storage battery group, based on the instruction. The transmitting unit transmits the first control order to the storage battery systems belonging to the first storage battery group.

Disclosed herein are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for charging and discharging an energy storage device connected to an electrical power distribution system. In one exemplary embodiment, a controller monitors electrical characteristics of an electrical power distribution system and provides an output to a bi-directional charger causing the charger to charge or discharge an energy storage device (e.g., a battery in a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV)). The controller can help stabilize the electrical power distribution system by increasing the charging rate when there is excess power in the electrical power distribution system (e.g., when the frequency of an AC power grid exceeds an average value), or by discharging power from the energy storage device to stabilize the grid when there is a shortage of power in the electrical power distribution system (e.g., when the frequency of an AC power grid is below an average value).

A method and system provide for the cooperative charging of electric vehicles. By using power line communications, chargers of the electric vehicles who are serviced by the same distribution transformer can form self-contained local area networks due to the nature of power line communications (PLCs). Alternatively, or in addition to the PLCs, other communication networks, such as the Internet and local area networks, may be used as part of the communications infrastructure for the chargers. After the chargers of the electric vehicles are coupled to one another through power line communications or traditional communications networks, they can form a logical token ring network. According to this token ring network, a predetermined number of tokens can be assigned within the token ring network for permitting chargers with tokens to charge respective electric vehicles while chargers without tokens must wait until they receive a token to initiate charging.
