摘要: The present invention describes a method using temperature data to protect battery health during bidirectional charging in conjunction with monetization activities. The method includes receiving temperature data and determining anticipated energy needs of a building. The temperature data includes at least the temperature of one or more electric vehicle batteries or information required to determine the temperature of the one or more electric vehicle batteries while the anticipated energy needs are relative to ambient air temperature. The method includes determining an amount of discharge of the one or more electric vehicle batteries required to offset the anticipated needs of the building by a predetermined amount and determining based on the temperature data whether discharging the one or more electric vehicle batteries would be harmful to the health of the one or more electric vehicle batteries. The method includes discharging the one or more electric vehicle batteries to offset the anticipated needs of the building.

摘要: The present invention is directed to an electric vehicle charger that may include power electronics, one or more controllers, and one or more cable/connector plugs. The disclosed bi-charger may operate bi-directionally. Power components may be arranged in a charger enclosure in a configuration providing the optimum air flow over a heat sink(s) that will allow the most heat to be moved out of the charger enclosure with the least effort. The disclosed charger may use a combination of forced and natural convection to effectively cool the system. Power stages may be mounted in the enclosure and a control tray may be mounted above the power stages. The disclosed charger may use a three-power stage architecture. The disclosed charger also uses a configuration and method of mounting and positioning the power components within the enclosure that results in a smaller and more power dense piece of equipment.

摘要: The present invention describes systems and methods for providing a resilient bidirectional charging infrastructure, including a plurality of smart poles connected in a circuit and a processor configured to cause the at least one of the plurality of smart poles to receive electricity from an electric vehicle based on an actual or predicted loss of electricity within the circuit. The plurality of smart poles is configured to provide at least part of a powered network, such as a 5G network, and at least one of the plurality of smart poles has an interface for receiving electricity from an electric vehicle.
