The web-application is equipped to identify locations of existing Government buildings, housing complexes, shopping centres, hospitals and nursing homes which have high dwell time for vehicles. As EVs are charged when they are idle, these locations can be assessed for setting up charging points to support the charging requirement of electric vehicles in the city.

This information can be further detailed with a layer of affluency to determine income levels of residents and use it to determine the vehicle profile and therefore charging requirements of the people in an area, said the company.

The principal secretary-cum-commissioner (transport), Ashish Kundra said, “This partnership will allow the Department of Transport to support the development of a customizable tool for decision making. The tool could be used for planning and identifying locations for deploying charging stations in the city.”

He added, “Moreover, the tool will also have the potential to map information with regards to average distance/movement of the vehicles, which can be instrumental to provide accessible public charging stations/battery swapping infrastructure for vehicles with high utilisation for instance, vehicles operated by fleet operators and fleet aggregators.”
