MANAGING THE EXCHANGE OF ELECTRICAL POWER WITH RECHARGEABLE VEHICLE BATTERIES IN V2X SYSTEMS
First Claim
1. A V2X system, comprising:
- an electrical power distribution system configured to draw electrical power from a grid, support the supply of the drawn electrical power to one or more primary electrical systems and support the exchange of electrical power with a battery bank including at least one rechargeable vehicle battery; and
an electrical power distribution system controller for managing the exchange of electrical power between the electrical power distribution system and the battery bank, the controller configured to;
identify a change rate in electrical power drawn by the electrical power distribution system from the grid,identify the battery bank'"'"'s starting state of charge,select an amount of electrical power for the electrical power distribution system to exchange with the battery bank based on the change rate, the battery bank'"'"'s starting state of charge and a desired ending state of charge for the battery bank, andsignal for the exchange of the selected amount of electrical power.

Abstract
A V2X system includes an electrical power distribution system configured to draw electrical power from a grid, support the supply of the drawn electrical power to one or more primary electrical systems and support the exchange of electrical power with a battery bank including at least one rechargeable vehicle battery. A controller manages the exchange of electrical power between the electrical power distribution system and the battery bank by identifying a change rate in electrical power drawn by the electrical power distribution system from the grid, identifying the battery bank'"'"'s starting state of charge, selecting an amount of electrical power for the electrical power distribution system to exchange with the battery bank based on the change rate, the battery bank'"'"'s starting state of charge and a desired ending state of charge for the battery bank, and signaling for the exchange of the selected amount of electrical power.
