Abstract: Inventions described include systems and methods for remotely servicing an electric charger. System components can include: a remote-controlled disconnect switch including a contactor configured to prevent the electric charger from losing power; a safety subsystem including a manual disconnect switch coupled to the remote-controlled disconnect switch; a set of lines coupling the remote-controlled disconnect switch to an interface and the manual disconnect switch; an indication subsystem; and optionally, an enclosure/housing. The systems and methods function to provide a safe and secure mechanism for remotely communicating with, accessing, manipulating, testing, servicing, and/or modulating operation of an associated charger.

Abstract: Systems and methods for load distribution, where a method can include: establishing an interface with a controlling architecture of an electric power distribution system, the electric power distribution system in communication with a set of outlets of utility-facing devices providing access to the electric power distribution system; returning a demand assessment from a demand model characterizing anticipated demand upon the one or more portions of the electric power distribution associated with the set of outlets, the set of outlets positioned at a set of sites; and executing an action for adjustment of load distribution throughout the set of sites, through the controlling architecture, based upon the demand assessment. The inventions can be used to achieve carbon emission goals by incentivizing better use of limited energy resources.

Abstract: Embodiments of a method and/or system for charging one or more electric vehicles (e.g., based on one or more reserved charging sessions; for charging an electric vehicle during a scheduled time period; etc.) can include: receiving a reservation request (e.g., a reservation request including one or more reservation parameters; etc.); scheduling a reserved charging session based on the reservation request (e.g., based on reservation parameters from the reservation request; etc.); determining a check in at an Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) for the reserved charging session; and/or causing the EVSE to charge the electric vehicle based on the reserved charging session (e.g., during the scheduled time period; etc.). Embodiments can support load management across groups of vehicles, offline access control, and improved user interfaces with improved security for facilitating charging sessions.

Abstract: Embodiments of a method and/or system for charging one or more electric vehicles can include: receiving a request (e.g., a request including one or more parameters; etc.); determining a check in at an Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) for the charging session; and/or causing the EVSE to charge the electric vehicle based on a power distribution type for the charging session.

Abstract: Embodiments of a methods and systems for charging one or more electric vehicles are described. A method can include: determining a collective power output aggregated from individual power outputs of each of the set of EVSEs; determining an adjusted power output of an EVSE unit of the set of EVSEs based upon the collective power output and an output constraint; and executing instructions for delivering the adjusted power output through the EVSE unit, for charging a vehicle of the set of vehicles. The set of vehicles can include fleet vehicles, and output constraints can be based upon demand response events.
