Abstract: A method of controlling battery preconditioning in a vehicle includes determining a first preconditioning characteristic of a first battery of a first vehicle relative to a charging station. The method further includes transmitting the first preconditioning characteristic. The method further includes receiving, from a second vehicle, a second preconditioning characteristic of a second battery relative to the charging station. The method further includes comparing the first preconditioning characteristic and the second preconditioning characteristic to determine a preconditioning ranking for the first vehicle and the second vehicle. The method further includes determining a queue of the first and second vehicles for the charging station using the preconditioning ranking of the first and second vehicles.

Abstract: A method of determining a capability of an electrical panel includes providing information relative to the electrical panel to a computer vision software, such as through an image captured by a camera. An attribute of the electrical panel may be analyzed, using the computer vision software, panel at least partially based on the information. An overall electrical power capacity of the electrical panel may be calculated based at least in part on the attribute of the electrical panel. An electrical load on the electrical panel may be calculated based at least in part on the attribute of the electrical panel. A report may be generated that includes an unused electrical power capacity of the electrical panel at least partially based on the electrical load and the overall electrical power capacity of the electrical panel.

Abstract: A method of coordinating a fleet of vehicles includes receiving a first preconditioning characteristic of a first battery from a first vehicle of the fleet of vehicles. The method further includes receiving a second preconditioning characteristic of a second battery from a second vehicle of the fleet of vehicles. The method further includes comparing the first preconditioning characteristic and the second preconditioning characteristic to determine a preconditioning ranking for the first vehicle and the second vehicle. The method further includes determining a queue of the first and second vehicles for a charging station using the preconditioning ranking of the first and second vehicles.

Abstract: A method of preconditioning a battery of a vehicle includes determining a baseline preconditioning start time relative to an estimated time of arrival at a charging station. The method further includes analyzing a route of the vehicle to the charging station to determine a route characteristic. The method further includes modifying the baseline preconditioning start time based on the route characteristic to determine a route-based preconditioning start time.
