Smart charging platform

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for balancing power delivery in a computing component between one or more power providers and power consumers. A power provider and multiple power consumers are identified. Once identified, a power delivery capability of the power provider and the power consumption demands of the power consumers may be determined. Power allocation factors are obtained that provide information regarding allocation of power between the power provider and the power consumers. In some instances, an interactive user interface may be provided that enables a user to configure a power allocation factor, such as a charging parameter for a power consumer. Using this information, a dynamic power allocation may be performed to allocate power from the power provider to the multiple power consumers.
