Vacant parking slot and charging price notifications service Overview

Parking slot usage data is collected through VICINITY by using three parking sensors to achieve monitoring function. A residential microgrid, which consists of PV, wind turbine and battery, is emulated in AAU IoT-microgrid Lab. The residential microgrid is assumed to supply power to EV chargers in the three parking slots. The real-time charging price is calculated by considering the simulated real-time utility electricity price, state-of-charge of batteries, and forecasts of the PV and wind turbine power generation. The parking slot usage and the real-time charging price will be sent automatically to users after subscribing the Vacant parking slot and charging price notifications service VAS.
