Charger Siting (NetworkPlanner)
Forecasts 24-month utilisation for candidate sites, selects the highest-NPV set, and pre-fills and tracks grid-interconnection filings.

The Challenge
Scaling from ~1,400 to 20,000+ connectors makes manual, capital-intensive site selection unsustainable. Poor selection destroys infrastructure IRR.
How It Works
- Reads traffic, population and pickup density for every candidate charger site.
- Predicts 24-month utilisation and selects top sites by NPV with a mixed-integer optimiser.
- Pre-fills the grid-interconnection filing per site and tracks each one to escalation.
What It Removes
- Manual screening of thousands of candidate sites
- Capital committed to sites that never fill
- Interconnection filings stalling unnoticed
Input Data RequirementsCandidate site list, traffic counts, population data, pickup density, land costs, grid wait times, interconnection filing rules
Output FormatPer-site 24-month utilisation forecast, NPV-ranked site selection, pre-filled interconnection filings, filing status tracker
“We put capital where the chargers will actually be used, and the filings stop sitting idle.”
