Use ChatGPT with EV Chargers to compare network coverage and produce a formatted comparison document. ChatGPT is well-suited for converting network statistics into a clear comparison table or policy brief — organized by the metrics that matter for fleet procurement decisions or EV infrastructure reporting.

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the EV Chargers tool:

  1. Specify the comparison scope — all UK networks, networks in specific regions, or a targeted set.
  2. Ask ChatGPT to run `network_stats` and `country_stats` via `ev-chargers`.
  3. Have ChatGPT produce a comparison table with key metrics for each network.
  4. Ask for a fleet recommendation or policy summary based on the data.

Example Prompt

Try this with ChatGPT using the EV Chargers tool
Use ev-chargers to compare UK charging networks using network_stats. Produce a comparison table with: network name, total charger count, rapid charger percentage, CCS connector percentage, and estimated UK coverage density. Include a brief recommendation for which network a fleet operator should prioritize for a CCS rapid-charge contract.

Tips

  • Include rapid charger percentage, not just total count — a network with 10,000 slow chargers is less useful for fleet operations than one with 2,000 rapids.
  • Ask for a fleet recommendation as a final section so the document has a clear conclusion.
  • Compare connector type distribution across networks — a network with 90% Type 2 and 10% CCS is a poor choice for CCS vehicles.
