The invention includes a Microprocessor Control Center for controlling an Electric Vehicle Charging Station, and methods thereof, which include a load center for aggregating a charging load from a renewable energy source, a battery stored energy source, and electricity taken directly from the transmission grid when the battery storage depleted. The objective of the system is to maximize the use of the renewable energy source which is used directly and at first priority. The use of an energy storage system prevents local brown-outs which can occur when large amounts of electricity is quickly removed from the grid. The energy storage system is recharged from the grid off-peak when rates and house-hold usage are lowest. In a preferred embodiment, the renewable source is solar power, in other embodiments the renewable source can be wind, tidal and biomass. The solar panels are located on the weather canopy roof at petroleum retail fueling sites.
