Abstract

See full text

A system and method for notifying a designated party when an electric vehicle charging operation is unexpectedly disrupted is provided. The system monitors the connection between the electric vehicle and the external battery pack charging source, issues a command to a notification system to send a notification message to the designated party when an interruption is detected, and then issues the notification message in accordance with a set of notification instructions. The notification instructions may include one or more criteria for determining whether the disruption is authorized, thus not requiring the transmittal of the notification message. Criteria for accepting the change in battery pack charging status as authorized includes user/device proximity to the vehicle, achievement of a target battery pack SOC, and location of the vehicle within a safe zone.
