Abstract
Techniques are described herein for intelligent charging of shipping container power supplies. An exemplary computer-implemented method may include (1) retrieving container data that includes a power supply indication for a set of shipping containers; (2) identifying one or more shipping containers, wherein the power supply indication for each of the shipping containers indicates that the one or more shipping containers include a power supply; (3) applying a charging model to the container data to determine (i) a charging prioritization, (ii) a respective charge value, and (iii) a respective charging rate; and (4) causing each of the one or more shipping containers to receive the respective charge value at the respective charging rate in a sequential order based upon the charging prioritization for each of the shipping containers.
