Method and system for allocating charging resources to a plurality of charging stations

A method is disclosed for allocating charging resources, e.g. amperes, to electric vehicle charging stations. The method comprises a step (i) of determining a 5 priority level for the electric vehicle charging stations thus forming priority groups. The method further comprises a step (ii) of determining a priority sublevel for one or more electric vehicle charging stations in a priority group. The method further comprises a step (iii) of allocating charging resources to the electric vehicle charging stations in accordance with the applicable priority levels and priority sublevels. In this 10 step, one or more disadvantaged electric vehicle charging stations in the second group are allocated limited charging resources. For these disadvantaged charging stations a priority sublevel lower than a threshold priority sublevel has been determined. The method further comprises a step (iv) of updating priority sublevels for the electric vehicle charging stations in the second group. In this step, higher 15 priority sublevels are determined for the disadvantaged electric vehicle charging stations in the second group than for electric vehicles in the second group that had a priority sublevel equal to or higher than said threshold priority sublevel before this updating step. The method further comprises a step (v) of allocating charging resources to the plurality of electric vehicle charging stations in accordance with the 20 applicable priority levels and priority sublevels.
