Abstract: The present solution can execute a handshake process to establish a bidirectional session utilizing communications that can be implemented on EVs and chargers from various manufacturers. The present solution relates to a charger that can execute a handshake process communication between the charger and an electric vehicle to establish a session for bidirectional power delivery between the charger and the electric vehicle via a power cable. The charger can transmit, in the handshake process to the electric vehicle, a data structure comprising a field for a minimum current with a value for the field that is less than zero. The charger can configure, subsequent to transmission of the data structure comprising the value for the minimum current, the session for bidirectional power delivery between the charger and the electric vehicle via the power cable.

Abstract: A data processing system can receive, from a plurality of electric vehicles (EVs), data on a plurality of charging stations. The data can include first data on availability of the charging stations and second data on performance of the charging stations captured by the plurality of EVs via a plurality of power cables coupled with the charging stations. The system can determine, based on the data, availability of a charging station of the plurality of charging stations. The system can determine, based on the data captured via a power cable of the plurality of power cables, performance of the charging station. The system can generate, based on the availability and the performance, a score for the charging station and provide, based on a comparison of the score with a second score for a second charging station of the plurality of charging stations, an indication corresponding to the charging station.
