Electric vehicle charging management methods and systems with flexible adjustment of charging schedule
Electric vehicle charging management methods and systems with flexible adjustment of charging schedule are provided. A server executes an energy management scheme to determine a target power parameter value for a charging operation of each electric vehicle charging station, and perform the charging operations accordingly for respective electric vehicles. A specific charging demand of a specific electric vehicle charging station or a specific electric vehicle is received, wherein the specific charging demand includes at least a demand time. In response to the specific charging demand, the target power parameter value corresponding to the charging operation of the specific electric vehicle charging station is adjusted, wherein the power of the specific electric vehicle at the time of demand will be higher than a predetermined power value.

executing the energy management scheme by the server, thus to determine a corresponding target power parameter value for the charging operation of each electric vehicle charging station, and perform the charging operations accordingly for respective electric vehicles through the respective electric vehicle charging stations;
receiving a specific charging demand of a specific electric vehicle charging station or a specific electric vehicle, wherein the specific charging demand comprises at least a demand time; and
in response to the specific charging demand, adjusting the target power parameter value corresponding to the charging operation of the specific electric vehicle charging station by the server,
wherein the power of the specific electric vehicle at the time of demand will be higher than a predetermined power value.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of adjusting the target power parameter value corresponding to the charging operation of each of the electric vehicle charging stations when the specific charging demand is received, wherein the sum of the adjusted target power parameter of each of the electric vehicle charging stations is not higher than a power limit corresponding to the charging field.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
executing a charging scheduling operation for each of the electric vehicle charging stations according to a time-of-use (TOU) rate, so as to determine a specific time point for each of the electric vehicle charging stations to perform the charging operation; and
adjusting the specific time point of the charging operation corresponding to the specific electric vehicle charging station when the specific charging demand is received.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising a step of calculating an adjustment cost corresponding to the specific charging demand according to the TOU rate and the specific time point of the charging operation corresponding to the specific electric vehicle charging station after adjustment.
5. An electric vehicle charging management system with flexible adjustment of charging schedule for use in a charging field, comprising:
a plurality of electric vehicle charging stations, each having a network connecting capability; and
a server having at least one energy management scheme, which records a power distribution logic for controlling a charging operation for each of the electric vehicle charging stations, executing the energy management scheme by the server, thus to determine a corresponding target power parameter value for the charging operation of each electric vehicle charging station, and perform the charging operations accordingly for respective electric vehicles through the respective electric vehicle charging stations, receiving a specific charging demand of a specific electric vehicle charging station or a specific electric vehicle, wherein the specific charging demand comprises at least a demand time, and in response to the specific charging demand, adjusting the target power parameter value corresponding to the charging operation of the specific electric vehicle charging station by the server, wherein the power of the specific electric vehicle at the time of demand will be higher than a predetermined power value.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the server further adjusts the target power parameter value corresponding to the charging operation of each of the electric vehicle charging stations when the specific charging demand is received, wherein the sum of the adjusted target power parameter of each of the electric vehicle charging stations is not higher than a power limit corresponding to the charging field.
7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the server further executes a charging scheduling operation for each of the electric vehicle charging stations according to a time-of-use (TOU) rate, so as to determine a specific time point for each of the electric vehicle charging stations to perform the charging operation, and adjusts the specific time point of the charging operation corresponding to the specific electric vehicle charging station when the specific charging demand is received.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the server further calculates an adjustment cost corresponding to the specific charging demand according to the TOU rate and the specific time point of the charging operation corresponding to the specific electric vehicle charging station after adjustment.
9. A machine-readable storage medium comprising a computer program, which, when executed, causes a device to perform an electric vehicle charging management method with flexible adjustment of charging schedule, which is applicable to a charging field including a plurality of electric vehicle charging stations, and the electric vehicle charging stations are connected to a server through a network, wherein the method comprises:
executing an energy management scheme, which records a power distribution logic for controlling a charging operation for each of the electric vehicle charging stations, thus to determine a corresponding target power parameter value for the charging operation of each electric vehicle charging station, and perform the charging operations accordingly for respective electric vehicles through the respective electric vehicle charging stations;
receiving a specific charging demand of a specific electric vehicle charging station or a specific electric vehicle, wherein the specific charging demand comprises at least a demand time; and
in response to the specific charging demand, adjusting the target power parameter value corresponding to the charging operation of the specific electric vehicle charging station,
wherein the power of the specific electric vehicle at the time of demand will be higher than a predetermined power value.
