Application: Upgrading an existing standard electric vehicle (EV) charger from grid to vehicle (V1G) to v1g plus vehicle to grid (V2G) operation (Patent ID: US20240201974A1)

Siemens AG has developed a system and method for upgrading existing standard Electric Vehicle (EV) chargers from Grid to Vehicle (V1G) to Vehicle to Grid (V2G) functionality. The method involves loading the existing charger with V2G compatible firmware and locally configuring it for V2G operation, enabling bi-directional charging/discharging of EVs. This local configuration requires authorization via a cloud for the conversion process.

The claims detail the steps involved in upgrading the existing standard AC EV chargers to support V2G operation, including loading compatible firmware, configuring maximum current, and obtaining authorization via a cloud. The method ensures compliance with safety standards such as ISO15118 and UL1741. Additionally, the method allows for user interaction through a user interface and installation software, enabling technicians to make necessary adjustments for V2G functionality. Overall, Siemens AG's innovation aims to enhance the capabilities of EV chargers by enabling bidirectional power flow between the grid and EVs, facilitating energy management and grid stability.
