  • Patent number: 11953959
    Abstract: A hybrid apparatus for charging electric vehicles and mining cryptocurrency is provided. The apparatus may comprise an electric power input associated with a rated maximum power capacity, an electric vehicle charger, a cryptocurrency miner and a power coordinator. The electric vehicle charger may have at least one vehicle power outlet and a maximum charger power draw from the electric power input. The cryptocurrency miner may have multiple cryptocurrency mining computers and a maximum miner power draw from the electric power input. Each mining computer may have an adjustable intensity level. The power coordinator may be configured to determine mining power availability within the rated maximum power capacity after prioritizing power demand by the electric vehicle charger, and to direct the cryptocurrency miner to continue mining cryptocurrency by adjusting the intensity levels of the mining computers such that the cryptocurrency miner consumes not more than the mining power availability.
