Abstract:
Various disclosed embodiments include illustrative controller units, systems, vehicles, and methods. In an illustrative embodiment, a controller unit includes a communication component, a controller and a memory. The communication component is configured to communicate with a direct current charging device. The controller is configured to communicate with the communication component and the memory. The memory is configured to store computer-executable instructions configured to cause the controller to determine a target location, receive location information of a vehicle, receive state of charge information, determine a charging request in response to the target location, the location information of the vehicle, and the state of charge information, and send, via the communication component, the determined charging request to the direct current charging device connectable to the vehicle.
