  • Patent number: 10377265
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for smart electric vehicle charging and a mediator device for the same. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a signal, at a first connector, indicative of a charging capacity of a charging station, from the charging station, and providing a signal indicative of a second charging capacity at a second connector to an electrical vehicle, wherein the second charging capacity is determined based on optimization data received from an optimization service.

  • Patent number: 9665109
    Abstract: A device or arrangement may be configured to receive a temperature limit such as an acceptable maximum temperature as well as a tolerance measure such as a number of acceptable events, the events causing the temperature to be outside of the temperature limit. An air comfort device may be operated based on the received temperature limit and the tolerance measure. A potential cost value may be provided based on a temperature limit and tolerance measure. A temperature limit and tolerance measure may be calculated based on a target cost value such that the arrangement may modify a temperature limit and/or tolerance measure to achieve the target cost value.

  • Patent number: 9660458
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for electrical load management. One of the systems includes a first electrical grid, one or more power sources coupled to the first electrical grid, a second electrical grid coupled to the first electrical grid by a power conversion system, one or more loads coupled to the second electrical grid, and one or more load control systems coupled to the one or more loads. A grid control system is configured to receive source information from the first electrical grid and send load instructions to the load control systems based on the source information.
