In certain embodiments, a charging system comprises distribution circuitry, power connectors, and a computer. The distribution circuitry provides power from a power supply. Each power connector couples the distribution circuitry to an electric vehicle of a set of electric vehicles and transmits current to the electric vehicle. The computer: receives a charging request from each electric vehicle; determines an allocation of power according to the charging requests; and instructs the distribution circuitry to send current to the electric vehicles according to the allocation of power. The computer adjusts the allocation of power to the electric vehicles by: detecting a change in the actual amount of current drawn by a particular electric vehicle; adjusting the allocation of power to the electric vehicles according to the change; and instructing the distribution circuitry to send the current to the electric vehicles, including the particular electric vehicle, according to the adjusted allocation of power.
