  "textContent": "Total charging time to charge an EV from a starting SOC to a target SOC is determined based on vehicle related data. Home energy usage of a home in an EV availability time window is also determined based on home related data. EV idle power consumptions for an EV charging mode, an EV discharging mode, and an EV idle mode with neither charging nor discharging are further determined. A genetic algorithm is set up with cost and penalty functions. These functions are built, for each candidate schedule in a solution space, based on the starting state of charge, the home energy usage and the EV idle power consumptions. The genetic algorithm is run to generate an optimized schedule that includes schedule values for the time slots in the EV availability time window to control whether the EV is to charge, discharge or idle in each of these time slots.",
