Site energy analysis

Evaluate utility electricity pricing, solar production potential, and grid capacity for prospective charging sites. A charging hub drawing 500kW peak needs a detailed energy cost and supply analysis before committing to the project.

Compare commercial electricity rates in Austin, TX versus Dallas, TX for a DC fast charging operation running 18 hours/day. Include demand charges and time-of-use rate structures.

Austin Energy commercial rate: $0.064/kWh energy + $13.50/kW demand charge. Dallas Oncor: $0.071/kWh + $15.20/kW demand. For a 500kW peak operation at 60% utilization, Austin saves approximately $38,000/year in energy costs — demand charges make up 34% of total bill at peak loads.

EV market and policy research

Track EV adoption trends, state EV mandates, utility interconnection timelines, and charging infrastructure policy to plan deployments ahead of demand curves and regulatory requirements.

Research the current status of state EV charging infrastructure requirements for multi-unit dwellings (MUDs) and workplaces across California, New York, and Massachusetts.

California: Title 24 requires EV-capable spaces in all new multi-family construction; SB 1000 requires charging-ready spaces in existing parking lots by 2024 for 50+ spaces. New York: Commercial building EV charging requirement passed in 2022 for 50+ space lots. Massachusetts: 2024 EV Infrastructure Act requires 15% EV-ready spaces in new commercial construction.

Site location scouting

Identify high-traffic locations for charging hub development by searching for commercial destinations, retail centers, parking structures, and highway rest stops with the space and dwell time that support profitable charging operations.

Find shopping centers and grocery store parking lots in the Atlanta metro area that have 200+ parking spaces and are located within 1 mile of I-285 or I-75 — ideal sites for a fast charging hub.

Found 23 candidate locations. Top 5 by traffic and proximity: Cumberland Mall (450 spaces, 0.4mi from I-285), Perimeter Mall (600 spaces, 0.8mi from I-285), Kroger Kennesaw (220 spaces, 0.6mi from I-75), North Point Mall (720 spaces, 1.0mi from GA-400). All have existing utility infrastructure within 100ft.

Frequently Asked Questions

What EV charging data is available for site selection analysis?

EV Chargers provides data on 500K+ charging locations across 100+ countries. For each station you can get charger levels (L1/L2/DCFC), network operator, power output (kW), access type (public/restricted), real-time availability, and pricing where disclosed.

Can I find specific federal and state grant programs for EV charging?

Grants Finder searches official government grant databases. For EV charging, this includes DOE RIDE program grants, NEVI Formula Program allocations, EPA Diesel Emissions Reduction Act funding, and state clean transportation programs. Programs are filtered by eligibility, location, and funding status.

How accurate is the electricity pricing data for project economics?

Energy Data provides current commercial and industrial electricity rates by region, including energy charges, demand charges, and time-of-use structure where available. Rates reflect current tariff filings and are accurate for feasibility modeling, though formal quotes should be obtained from utilities for committed projects.

Can I use these tools for EV charging in other countries?

Yes. EV Chargers covers 100+ countries with 500K+ stations. Energy Data includes electricity prices for major international markets. Grants Finder covers the US, UK, Australia, and Japan. Deep Research can provide regulatory context for any jurisdiction.

How do I identify charging deserts along highway corridors?

Query EV Chargers with corridor coordinates at regular intervals to map existing infrastructure, then identify gaps where consecutive queries return no DC fast chargers within your threshold distance. This approach is commonly used to document gaps for NEVI and DOT grant applications.
