摘要： Systems and methods are provided herein for providing a method for better allocation of EVCS services. This may be accomplished by an electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) updating a status of a parking space associated with the EVCS. For example, when the EVCS is charging an electric vehicle, the status of the parking space may be “occupied.” After the electric vehicle leaves the parking space, the EVCS may update the status of the parking space to “available.” The EVCS may also transmit the parking space status to electric vehicles requiring charging.

摘要： The disclosed embodiments provide a method performed at a computer system that is in communication with an electric vehicle charging station (EVCS). The EVCS includes a camera for obtaining images in a region proximal to the EVCS. The method includes capturing, using the camera, a plurality of images of electric vehicles, each image in the plurality of images being an image of a respective electric vehicle. The method further includes, for each respective image of the plurality of images of electric vehicles: determining, without user intervention, a characteristic of the respective electric vehicle; and tagging, without user intervention, the respective image with the characteristic of the respective electric vehicle. The method further includes training a first machine learning algorithm to identify the characteristic of other electric vehicles using the tagged plurality of images.

摘要： An approach is provided for generating an electric vehicle score (EVScore), a rating scale representing, for a user, a future estimated ease of ownership and operation of an EV within a defined geographic region. The method includes receiving a plurality of regional engine inputs pertaining to a defined geographic region, and one or more user inputs pertaining to the user. The method also includes processing, via a predictive model, the plurality of regional engine inputs and the one or more user inputs to generate one or more intermediate scores for the defined geographic region. The method also includes receiving a plurality of projected inputs pertaining to projected ownership and operation costs and benefits of electric vehicles (EVs) for the defined geographic region. The method also includes processing, via a trained machine learning model, the plurality of projected inputs and the one or more intermediate scores to generate the EVS core.

摘要： Systems and methods are provided herein for integrating a step-down transformer into an electric vehicle charging station (EVCS). Integrating a step-down transformer into an EVCS optimizes electric vehicle charging and provides for more flexible EVCS placement. For example, the EVCS's power source (e.g., electrical room) can transmit power to the EVCS at a higher voltage (e.g., 480 V) because the power will be stepped down by the EVCS before charging an electric vehicle at a lower voltage (e.g., 240 V). Transmitting power at a higher voltage reduces power loss during transmission so electric vehicles can be charged more efficiently.

摘要： An approach is provided for estimating the optimal number and mixture of types of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations (EVCS) at one or more points of interest (POIs). A method includes generating, based on an EV adoption model, an EV adoption prediction. The method includes generating, based on a mobility simulation model, a driver-type prediction that predicts percentages of EV drivers qualifying for various EV driver types. The method includes generating, based on the EV adoption prediction, the driver-type prediction, and a visitation model, a visitation prediction that predicts how many EV drivers of each type of EV driver will visit the POI. The method includes determining and displaying, based on how many EV drivers of each type of EV driver is predicted to visit the POI, for each type of EV charging station of a plurality of types of EV charging stations, an optimal number of EVCS to install.

摘要： The disclosed embodiments include a charging station for an electric vehicle. The charging station includes a plurality of light sources, one or more processors, and memory storing instructions for performing a set of operations. The set of operations includes determining a state of the charging station, the state indicating a status of an electric vehicle at the charging station. In accordance with a determination that the state is a first state, the charging station provides a first visual indication of the first state using a first light source of the plurality of light sources. In accordance with a determination that the state is a second state, the charging station provides a second visual indication of the second state.
