  • Method for charging an accumulator battery through a charging terminal
    Patent number: 11738658
    Abstract: A charging method is performed to charge an accumulator battery of a vehicle. The charging method includes receiving data relating to the evolution over time of the electric power available at the charging terminal and the cost of electricity, and selecting a time window in which the cost of electricity is at a minimum. The charging method further includes estimating a temperature that the accumulator battery will have at the time of the time window and a level of charge that the accumulator battery will have before the time window, determining the electric power that the charging terminal is able to transmit to the accumulator battery during the time window, deducing a new level of charge that the accumulator battery will have at the end of the time window, comparing the new level of charge with a target level of charge, and charging the accumulator battery accordingly.
