Abstract

An electric vehicle charging system is disclosed, including a bidirectional DC charger and an internal DC bus in electrical connection with the bidirectional DC charger. A transformerless split inverter is in electric connection to a home's AC power grid to charge one or more electric vehicles.

Claims (5)

What is claimed is:
1. An electric vehicle charging system, comprising; a bidirectional DC charger; an internal DC bus in electrical connection with the bidirectional DC charger; and a transformerless split inverter in with bidirectional electrical connection to a homeâ s AC power grid to charge one or more electric vehicles.
2. The electric vehicle charging system of Claim 1, wherein the electric vehicle charging system is in communication with the Internet.
3. The electric vehicle charging system of Claim 2, wherein the electric vehicle charging system receives historical, current, or future weather information to provide a predictive model of energy consumption and energy generation.
4. The electric vehicle charging system of Claim 1, wherein the DC charger provides management of the energy source and the energy load of a home with the capability of deciding at every time which energy source is to be used to charge the vehicle and when to charge the vehicle based on smart control that considers tariffsâ rate at the specific time of the day, weather conditions and prediction, and / or user commands.
5. The electric vehicle charging system of Claim 4, wherein the electric vehicle charging system is compatible with the homeâ s AC power grid.
