Electric vehicle charger management system for interoperable charging facilities

This paper designs and develops a real-time charger management system which keeps collecting the status information from chargers and converts control messages from the total operation center to a command predefined for charger control. rf cards complete the service chain from electric vehicles to the operation center,making the information flow bidirectional. the extended coverage of the operation control over the charging infrastructure allows an easy payment for the charging fee,based on the membership management and personalized services. a web application is implemented on the digital map of the target city for users to retrieve necessary information from the system and find the best service and chargers. the massive amount of real-time charger monitoring data is being accumulated in the database,and big data analysis will allow us to make intelligent plans for future smart grid city services. © 2016 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
