How to identify zones with potential for slow charging
The Stay & charge segment is drawn towards slow charging points. You will find multiple layers within your ChargePlanner application providing insights into the market space for slow charging. In general, the following steps need to be followed:
1. Make sure you see the data you want to see
2. Consult map layers
3. Click on an individual zone to see more details
4. Make an Excel export and analyse further
TIP: take a guided tour through the platform to familiarize yourself with this new information. You can access the tour through the helpcenter button.
Note: consult all the details of the methodology in our technical report.
1. Make sure you see the data you want
- Go to marketing efforts
- Click on 'clear all settings'
- Choose your aggregation level: on which zone level do you want to see the results?
- Select the period for which you want to see the data (typically the most recent data)
2. Consult map layers
- Click on map layers at the upper right corner
Here you see two relevant layer groups for slow charging:
1. Layer group: ‘Stay & charge market potential'
Here you can select several map layers that play a role in the market potential for slow charging (for example #EVs) as well as the actual market potential per zone. If you don’t know what a layer means, hover over and/or click on the layer for more explanation
2. Layer group: ‘Stay & charge market space’
Here you can select the elements that are part of the market space calculation.
‘Number of needed slow charging points in the zone’ gives you a map that shows how many slow charging points can still be opened in each zone.
TIP! If you want more information about the details of these calculations, please consult the technical report that was presented and sent to you by our project team
3. Click on an individual zone to see more details
You can always click on an individual zone on the map to see the different elements specifically for that zone.
Consult the zone report to see even more details.
4. Make an Excel export
If you want to do further analysis in Excel, you can export all this information.
Click on ‘Export to Excel’ at the upper right corner of your application (while still in the Marketing Efforts module).
Select template ‘Stay & charge (zone) & click apply.
Click on your user on ‘Exports’.
Download the Excel file with information & dive deeper. You can filter on a certain aggregated zone if you want to limit your analysis to a certain geographical area.
Find your zone easily on the map: The easiest way to do so is by filling in the geographical position with latitude and longitude (that is also exported as a column in the export template) in the searchbar on the map.
