This represents a single user specified charging target for an EV.
An EVSE or EMS system optimizer may use this information to take the Time of Use Tariff, grid carbon intensity,
local generation (solar PV) into account to provide the cheapest and cleanest energy to the EV.
The optimization strategy is not defined here, however in simple terms, the AddedEnergy requirement can be
fulfilled by knowing the charging Power (W) and the time needed to charge.
To compute the Charging Time: Required Energy (Wh) = Power (W) x ChargingTime (s) / 3600 Therefore: ChargingTime
(s) = (3600 x RequiredEnergy (wH)) / Power (W)
To compute the charging time: Charging StartTime = TargetTimeMinutesPastMidnight - ChargingTime
