Systems and methods of modifying idle thresholds for charging electric vehicles

A method for charging an electric vehicle is performed at an electric vehicle charging station. The method includes determining that, a vehicle is occupying a bay of an electric vehicle charging station. The method further includes, identifying a user associated with the vehicle; allotting a charging parameter threshold for charging the vehicle and determining that the user is located within a predefined geographic area. The method includes, when the user is located within the predefined geographic area, increasing the charging parameter threshold from a first charging parameter threshold value to a second charging parameter threshold value.
