Build a planner that estimates charging demand by location and suggests where to place chargers.
Success looks like
Recommendations backed by demand maps and tested against held-out usage data from a pilot or public sources.
Suggested technologies
- Geospatial analysis
- Demand modelling
- Facility location
- Open data
- Dashboards
