Claim 7:
8. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising machine executable code that, upon execution by one or more processors, implements an electric vehicle charging control process for a site, the electric vehicle charging control process comprising:
measuring power consumption of a set of electric vehicle charging stations at a site over a time period and a set of loads at the site over the time period, wherein the set of loads is not actively monitored or captured within the set of electric vehicle charging stations;
determining a consumption variation indicator for the power consumption of the set of loads and the set of electric vehicle charging stations during the time period, wherein the consumption variation indicator comprises a comparative indicator of the power consumption during the time period and the power consumption during a period preceding the time period;
determining a charging rate for an electric vehicle at the site based on the consumption variation indicator; and
transmitting a signal to at least one of the electric vehicle or an electric vehicle charging station of the set of electric vehicle charging stations, the signal comprising computer-executable instructions to control power draw for the electric vehicle based on the charging rate.
