Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a personalized charging rate are provided. In one embodiment, a system may include a recognition module, a schedule module, a charge rate module, and a charging module. The recognition module is configured to identify a vehicle to receive a charge from a charging station. The schedule module is configured to determine a parked period when the vehicle will be present at the charging station based on a schedule. The charge rate module is configured to calculate a personalized charging rate based on the parked period. The charge rate defines a charge period that is an amount of time that the charging station will provide charge to the vehicle. The personalized charging rate is calculated to reduce a time difference between the parked period and the charge period. The charging module is configured to set the personalized charging rate.
