1. A method for sending a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) request comprising:
- receiving a V2G request for a specific geographical region;
determining which of a plurality of vehicles are in the specific geographic region;
determining a subset of the plurality of vehicles located in the specific geographic region that meet at least one criteria to join the V2G request, wherein the at least one criteria is established to reduce battery degradation of the plurality of vehicles, wherein historical data of the plurality of vehicles is used to determine the subset; and
sending a signal to the subset of the plurality of vehicles to join the V2G request.

Abstract
A method for sending a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) request that includes receiving a V2G request for a specific geographical region; determining which of a plurality of vehicles are in the specific geographic region; determining a subset of the plurality of vehicles located in the specific geographic region that meet at least one criteria to join the V2G request, wherein the at least one criteria uses historical data of the plurality of vehicles to reduce battery degradation of the plurality of vehicles; and sending a signal to the subset of the plurality of vehicles to join the V2G request.

10. A system for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) priority based selection comprising:
-
a network configured for communication between one or more utility companies, a vehicle company, and a plurality of vehicles manufactured by the vehicle company; at least one server with a database containing information for the plurality of vehicles, wherein the at least one server has a processor configured to access the database and to execute a set of program instructions causing the processor to; receive a V2G request for a specific geographical region; determine a subset of a plurality of vehicles that meet a plurality of criteria to join the V2G request, wherein the plurality of criteria are guidelines established to reduce battery degradation, wherein current and historical data of the plurality of vehicles determines eligibility for the V2G request; and send a signal to the subset of the plurality of vehicles to join the V2G request. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method for a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) priority based selection comprising:
-
receiving a request for a plurality of vehicles manufactured by a vehicle company to join a V2G based on a geographic region; reviewing a database of last known vehicle status to determine a last known position for each of the plurality of vehicles in the database; determining which of the plurality of vehicles are in the geographic area specified in the request to join the V2G; determining a subset of the plurality of vehicles that are in the geographic area that meet a plurality of criteria established by the vehicle company to reduce battery degradation, wherein current and historical data is used to determine the subset; sending a signal to the subset to join the V2G; and communicating to at least one of the plurality of vehicles to limit V2G participation based on the current and historical data of the at least one of the plurality of vehicles to prevent further battery degradation. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
