Methods, systems, and devices of a charging scheduler are provided for a vehicle that generates a charging schedule based on home power usage, user charging preferences, user schedule, vehicle information, and/or power provider attributes. The charging scheduler allows a user of a vehicle to connect the vehicle to a charging station and for the charging station to charge the rechargeable energy storage of the vehicle during charging time periods specified in the charging schedule without further user interaction. According to one embodiment, the charging scheduler may use power provider attributes for power costs per time of day and/or for home power usage costs to reduce the cost of charging the rechargeable energy storage of the vehicle. The power provider attributes may be updated in real time, and the charging scheduler may update the charging schedule based on changes to power provider attributes.
