Abstract
A system for a vehicle-to-vehicle charging service for plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) includes a real-time server (RTS). The RTS wirelessly communicates with communication devices associated with individual PEVs having membership in the charging service and provides to the communication devices real-time positions of individual PEVs on a map of a terrain. The system also includes a first communication device for a first PEV configured to wirelessly transmit, via the RTS, to communication devices associated with the remaining PEVs, a request for an amount of electrical energy to charge the first PEV. The system additionally includes a second communication device associated with a second PEV and configured to wirelessly transmit, via the RTS, to the first communication device an offer to dispense the requested amount of electrical energy. The first communication device is further configured to wirelessly transmit, via the RTS, to the second communication device acceptance of the offer.
