Abstract
A method of controlling scheduled charging is provided. The method includes calculating a primary scheduled charge time based on an expected charge time consumption and an expected primary scheduled charge start time and calculating an expected temperature for the primary scheduled charge time based on the primary scheduled charge time and charger temperature information or climate information. A corrected expected charge time consumption is calculated based on the calculated expected temperature and a secondary scheduled charge time is calculated based on the corrected expected charge time consumption. A vehicle battery is charged based on the secondary scheduled charge time.
