    Abstract: A power management system can smartly allocate the available power at a location to support more electric vehicles than would otherwise be possible. Power managers can intelligently allocate that power based on the real-time needs of vehicles. A smart energy distribution system can estimate each vehicle's current charge level and use such information to efficiently provide electric vehicle charging. The system can respond dynamically to vehicle charge levels, current readings, and/or electrical mains readings, allocating more current where it is needed. The charger profiles can include historic charge cycle information, which can be analyzed under a set of heuristics to predict future charging needs. A local electric vehicle charging mesh network can be provided, which transmits data packets among short-range transceivers of multiple power managers. The local electric vehicle charging mesh network can be connected to a remote server via a cellular connection. The power managers and the local electric vehicle charging mesh network can intelligently allocate power to multiple electric vehicles.

    Abstract: A remote computer server communicates with a fleet of electric vehicles, and gathers telemetry data from the fleet of electric vehicles. An intelligent EVSE unit and/or a DC fast charging unit communicates with the remote server, and charges an electric vehicle based at least in part on the telemetry data from the fleet of electric vehicles. The remote computer server can generate charging instructions based at least in part on the telemetry data gathered from the fleet of electric vehicles. The intelligent EVSE unit and/or the DC fast charging unit receive the charging instructions, and charge the electric vehicle based at least in part on the charging instructions, the telemetry data, and/or an existent electrical load associated with an electrical panel of a house or a building.

    Abstract: A system for checking metering accuracy of an EVSE unit includes an EVSE unit including a cable and a charge handle. The system includes an electric vehicle including a charging port configured to be coupled to the charge handle. The electric vehicle is configured to be charged by the EVSE unit using the cable and the charge handle. In place of the electric vehicle, an electric vehicle-emulating electric load can be used. The system includes an inline electric meter device having a terminal end and a distal end. The charging port of the electric vehicle is configured to be coupled to the terminal end of the inline electric meter device. The charge handle is configured to be coupled to the distal end of the inline electric meter device. The inline electric meter device may be connected in various configurations. The inline electric meter device includes a display, a microprocessor, test and diagnostic logic, a report generator, a camera, and/or a GPS receiver.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concept measure the amount of electrical power being consumed in one or more houses or buildings, before the utility meter or meters. These measurements are used by a smart load manager (SLM) apparatus, in addition to information about the maximum capacity of the electrical lines that are being measured, to maximize the number of electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) units that can be installed in the one or more buildings, and maximize the amount of power that is available for electric vehicle (EV) charging at any given time.

    Abstract: Embodiments include a multi-level electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) unit. The multi-level EVSE unit can include a Level 2 charge handle, a receptacle configured to receive the Level 2 charge handle, and a Level 1 outlet including one or more plug outlets configured to receive one or more corresponding Level 1 plugs. The Level 2 charge handle can be permanently attached to the multi-level EVSE unit via a cable. The Level 1 outlet can temporarily receive the one or more corresponding Level 1 plugs. A first power meter associated with the Level 2 charge handle can meter power delivered via the Level 2 charge handle. A second power meter associated with the Level 1 outlet can meter power delivered via the Level 1 outlet. A charging logic and relay section can intelligently allocate power between the Level 2 handle and the Level 1 outlet according to charging rules.
