Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of: determining an inability for an entity to provide electrical energy over a threshold to an area; determining an available amount of energy from a group of electric vehicles and a group of energy storage units at one or more locations currently receiving electrical energy in the area, wherein the available amount of energy is at least equivalent to the threshold; and providing at least a portion of the determined available amount of energy to one or more locations in the area not currently receiving electrical energy from the entity.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of determining a total environmental impact of a group of vehicles during a period, wherein at least one of the vehicles is an internal combustion engine vehicle and wherein at least one of the vehicles is an electric vehicle; receiving a request to use a vehicle of the group to reach a destination; determining an environmental impact associated with each of the vehicles in the group to reach the destination during the period; and recommending a vehicle in the group to use, based on its determined environmental impact and the total environmental impact being less than a threshold.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of determining an estimated arrival time of a first transport to a charging station, determining an estimated remaining stored transport energy at the estimated arrival time of the first transport, notifying the first transport to provide a portion of the determined remaining stored transport energy and when a next transport is delayed to the charging station, notifying the first transport to provide an additional portion of the determined remaining stored transport energy based on the delay.

Abstract: An example operation may include one or more of determining, by a server, a location where a first transport will run out of energy, determining, by the server, an optimal intermediate location for energy transfer that is located prior to the location where the transport will run out of energy based on current traffic patterns, determining, by the server, a first amount of energy needed by a second transport to maneuver to the optimal intermediate location and to wirelessly provide a second amount of energy to the first transport, and instructing, by the server, the first and second transports to wirelessly provide the second amount of energy at the intermediate location.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of directing, by a transport, another transport in need of a first amount of charge to an off-grid stationary battery, providing, by the transport, a second amount of charge to the off-grid stationary battery, and notifying, by the transport, the another transport to retrieve the first amount of charge, wherein the first amount of charge is less than the second amount of charge.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of determining that an increased charging need for electric vehicle charging stations within a location may be imminent due to an increased number of electric vehicles to an area. The increased charging need may be due to, for example, an event, festival or a holiday season, particularly where the area may be a popular tourist destination. Having determined an increased charging need, electric vehicles associated with the location may be sent a direction to charge, e.g. from the charging stations, prior to the increased demand to relieve the burden on the charging stations during the period of increased need.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of determining, by a station, a first group of transports in need of charge and a second group of transports capable of providing charge, prioritizing, by the station, at least one transport of the second group to come to the station at a time prior to when at least one transport of the first group comes to the station, receiving, at the station, a first amount of charge from the at least one transport of the second group, and providing, from the station, a second amount of charge to the at least one transport of the first group.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of receiving a first energy, at a target transport, from a charging station at a first value during a first amount of time, and the target transport and the charging station are physically connected, and receiving a second energy, at the target transport, from a providing transport at a second value greater than the first value during a second amount of time less than the first amount of time, and the target transport and the providing transport are wirelessly connected.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of sensing that a transport in a group is performing at an efficiency below a threshold and modifying at least one other transport in the group to perform at an efficiency above the threshold, wherein the efficiency above the threshold is similar to efficiency below the threshold, wherein the modification occurs at a final portion of a route of the at least one other transport.
