Abstract
A method for coordinating charging processes of electric vehicles. A respective supply signal (S1), with at least data on an available quantity of energy and a current geographic position, is transmitted by mobile supplier units, and a respective demand signal (S2), with at least data on a demanded quantity of energy and a current geographic position, is transmitted by mobile procuring units to a central computer (P2). On the basis of the supply signals (S1) and the demand signals (S2), possible combinations, each composed of a supplier unit and a procuring unit, together with a respective evaluation value, are created by the central computer (P3). Specific combinations are selected by an optimization method (P4), and respective selected combinations and data regarding an energy transfer process are transmitted to the respective supplier units and the respective procuring units of the selected combinations by a coordination signal (S3) (P5).
