The present disclosure describes a device for providing adaptive charging of an electric vehicle (EV). The device includes a memory and at least one processor configured for receiving a set of parameters of an aggregate power waveform carried on a power line from a set of sensors; receiving a set of relationships between a set of power signatures and a set of power sources; determining, using the set of parameters and the set of power signatures, a subset of the set of power signatures represented in the set of parameters; identifying, using the subset of the set of power signatures and the set of relationships between the set of power signatures and the set of power sources, a subset of the set of power sources contributing to the aggregate power waveform; and controlling, responsive to identifying identified subset of the set of power sources, a charging circuit.
