Abstract
An electric vehicle charging system and method of charging an electric vehicle are disclosed. The electric vehicle charging system is formed of a distributed system comprising a central control module housing communications, user authentication and energy metering devices and a local charging module housing at least one outlet connector for connecting to an electric vehicle.
Claims (12)
1. Electric vehicle charging system comprising: a central control module adapted to receive electricity from a power distribution network and to distribute electricity to at least one local charging feed, comprising: at least one central switch, each central switch coupled exclusively to one of the at least one local charging feeds; and a central controller in communication with a communications network; wherein each central switch is adapted to be switched by the central con troller on receipt of an authorisation signal transmitted to the central controller via the communications network from a remote backoffice; and at least one local charging module, remote from the central control module, and adapted to receive electricity from at least one of the local charging feeds and to supply electricity to an electric vehicle, comprising: a local controller configured to be activated by the switching of the central switch coupled to one local charging feed; a charging outlet adapted to connect to an electric vehicle; and a local switch adapted to be switched by the local controller and coupled to the outlet.
2. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the local switch is further adapted to control the supply of electricity to the charging outlet to supply the electric vehicle.
3. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the local charg ing module is adapted to communicate with the electric vehicle.
4. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in claim 3, wherein the local charging feed is connected to the local charging module by a switched line LI, a neutral line N, and a protective earth line PE.
5. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the central control module is coupled to a plurality of local charging feeds, and wherein each local charging feed is coupled to at least one local charging module.
6. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in claim 5, wherein the central control ler is adapted to control each central switch independently.
7. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in any preceding claim, wherein the central control module further comprises an energy meter adapted to record the flow of electricity to each local charging feed.
8. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in any preceding claim, wherein the central controller is adapted to communicate with at least one of a user and an authenti cation system for electric vehicle charging.
9. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in any preceding claim, wherein the local charging module further comprises a second local charging feed and a second charg ing outlet adapted to connect to an electric vehicle.
10. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in any preceding claim, wherein the local charging module further comprises a second charging outlet adapted to connect to an electric vehicle, and the local switch is adapted to switch between the first charging outlet and the second charging outlet.
11. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in any preceding claim, wherein the local charging module further comprises a second charging outlet adapted to connect to a second electric vehicle such that the local charging module is adapted to supply electricity to two electric vehicles simultaneously.
12. Electric vehicle charging system as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a plurali ty of local charging modules, each remote from the central control module, and each adapted to receive electricity from one of a plurality of respective local charging feeds and to supply electricity to a plurality of electric vehicles simultaneously.
