Abstract:
A charging station for electric vehicles (EVs) is mounted on a public light post which receives an allotment of electric energy from a distributed power grid. In addition to its electrical connection with the distributed power grid, the charging station is electrically connected with a solar array on the light post that collects solar electric energy. Also mounted on the light post is a wind turbine that produces wind-generated electric energy. The electric energy from all three sources (i.e. solar, wind and grid) is consolidated in a storage battery at the charging station. The consolidated electric energy is then used for charging EVs, with an overriding priority given to electric energy allotted for regulated grid support requirements, such as street lighting and lighting for public venues.

Claim (Index 15):
A non-transitory, computer-readable medium having executable instructions stored thereon that direct a computer system to perform a process for operating an electric vehicle (EV) charging station, the medium comprising instructions for:\n monitoring a light source mounted on a light post, to ensure sufficient electric energy is taken from a distributed power grid and held in a storage battery for an operational use by the light source to illuminate an area; consolidating electric energy contributions to the storage battery from a solar array (solar electric energy), a wind turbine (wind electric energy), and a predetermined allotment of electric energy from the distributed power grid (grid electric energy), to establish a combined electric energy capacity for the storage battery; prioritizing the collection of electric energy in the storage battery by first charging the storage battery with available electric energy from the renewable resources of the solar array and the wind turbine, before electric energy is taken from the distributed power grid; and dispensing electric energy from the storage battery, on demand, to charge an electric vehicle when there is excess electric energy in the storage battery, and to otherwise suspend dispensing of the electric energy.
