I'm ignorant as to existing implementations but the system I heard of to solve this is:

Your car or charger module has electricity spot prices available to it and you can select a strategy for it to automatically follow.

E.g.

* Rapid charge (charge battery, ignore price)

* Economise (charge battery at low price)

* Make money (charge/discharge according to price to profit from the difference)
