PAYING FOR PARKING WITH ELECTRICAL POWER FROM AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Abstract:

A device communicates with a parking meter associated with a parking space to be used for parking by an electric vehicle, where the electric vehicle is associated with the device. The device receives vehicle power information, vehicle profile information, and vehicle location information, and determines parking payment options based on the vehicle power information, the vehicle profile information, and the vehicle location information. The device receives a selection of a particular parking payment option of the parking payment options, where the particular parking payment option includes an option to pay for parking by providing power to the parking meter from the electric vehicle. The device causes the electric vehicle to connect to the parking meter based on the particular parking payment option, and causes the electric vehicle to provide power to the parking meter based on the particular parking payment option.
