Abstract
A system and method of planning external electric power usage of a vehicle traction battery includes retrieving, remotely from the vehicle, data including a current charge level of a traction battery in the vehicle and an estimated range of the vehicle based on the charge level. Input of planned power usage of the traction battery by a set of devices is input remotely from the vehicle. An estimated change of the current charge level is determined based upon the planned power usage based on the current charge level, the estimated range, and the planned power usage. Based on the estimated change of the current charge level, a revised charge level of the traction battery and a revised estimated range of the vehicle is determined, and the revised charge level of the traction battery and the revised estimated range of the vehicle is output to a user computing device.
