DIRECTED ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING SYSTEM FOR GENERATING REVENUE AND METHODS THEREOF

The present disclosure relates to a directed electric vehicle charging system for generating revenue and methods thereof. More particularly, this disclosure describes a telematics service provider that maintains relationships with charging stations and their associated stores such that revenue may be realized by directing vehicles to those charging stations. In an illustrative embodiment, the telematics service provider may receive a charge event from a vehicle and in turn, the provider provides an appropriate charging station to that vehicle. An amount spent at the charging station including its associated stores are tracked when the vehicle charges at the charging station. After completing the charging and the vehicle leaves the area, the amount spent is tallied and provided to the telematics service provider. A portion of the amount spent may then be sent to the telematics service provider for the recommended charging station.
