A method for operating one or more processors to control access of a plurality of pieces of rechargeable electrical equipment, optionally including one or more electric vehicles, to one or more charging resources. An access queue is maintained for each of the charging resources. Each piece of equipment is assigned a position in an access queue when it is determined to have a state of charge (SOC) less than the first level. Each access queue is updated based on charger information such as its availability. A piece of equipment is assigned access to a charging resource when its queue position reaches a first priority position and a charging resource is available. For each piece of equipment assigned access to a charging resource, an instruction to end access to the charging resource is issued when an elapsed charging time period is equal to or greater than a break time or the SOC is greater than a second level representative of an operational charge.
