Abstract
A charging facility provides a charging lane for charging electric vehicles (EVs). A charging system for charging the EVs in the lane includes a power management system and a set of chargers, each charger at a respective charging position along the charging lane. A load manager receives information about the EVs' charge levels and positions in the lane, and determines a charge rate for each EV. The power management system receives power from a power supply and distributes the power to the chargers according to the charging rates determined by the load manager, and the chargers deliver the power to the EVs.
