Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing an energy storage device charging schedule are provided. In one example, a method may include calculating a merit value for a current time frame based on current data concerning predetermined criteria; calculating respective merit values for one or more future time frames based on the current data and historical data concerning the predetermined criteria; identifying, from among the current time frame and the one or more future time frames, a plurality of candidate charge adjustment time frames; and assigning, from among the plurality of candidate charge adjustment time frames, one or more charge adjustment time frames during which to adjust a charge level of an energy storage device based on at least the merit values associated with the plurality of candidate charge adjustment time frames.
