Abstract

An ability of a power transmission device to transfer electric charge in a power-transmission area at a particular point in time is identified. The ability comprises a threshold number of vehicles to which the power-transmission device can transfer electric charge with at least a threshold efficiency. A predicted number of electric vehicles that are likely to be requesting electric charge within the power-transmission area at the particular point in time is calculated. The number of electric vehicles that are likely to be requesting electric charge within the power-transmission area at the particular point in time is adjusted based on a determination that the predicted number of vehicles is not bound by the threshold number of vehicles.
