Abstract: An electric vehicle charging system includes multiple electric vehicle charging stations, each suitable for charging at least one electric vehicle, and a computing device. The computing device is for determining that a present load exceeds a predetermined peak load, the present load made up of the combined present loads of the multiple electric vehicle charging stations, identifying at least two of the multiple electric vehicle charging stations for adjustment of an electrical load, and adjusting the electrical load of the at least two of the multiple electric vehicle charging stations to arrive at an adjusted load across the multiple electric vehicle charging stations, such that the adjusted load is less than the predetermined peak load.
