Patent attributes
Methods and systems are disclosed configured to automatically transport electric vehicles to charging stations and to charge the electric vehicles. A first vehicle is identified as an electric vehicle. The first vehicle is caused to be navigated to a transportable pallet having a charging cable coupled thereto. A determination is made that a charging station is available to receive the first vehicle. The pallet, with the first vehicle thereon, is transported to the available charging station. The charging cable, coupled to the pallet, is connected to a charging device and the first vehicle is charged. At least partly in response to detecting that the first vehicle has completed charging, the pallet is automatically conveyed, with the first vehicle positioned thereon, to a parking area. The first vehicle is conveyed to a parking location within the parking area.
