  • Charging stations experience unpredictable surges or idle periods, leading to long wait times or wasted infrastructure.
  • City planners and operators struggle to decide how many charging points to allocate at different locations.
  • Poor demand forecasting results in inefficient investment and reduced adoption of EVs due to unreliable charging availability.

 

Challenge

Develop an AI solution that forecasts charging demand at individual stations. The system should take into account:

  • Historical station usage (transactions per hour/day).
  • Temporal patterns (time of day, weekdays vs weekends, seasonality).
  • Geographic location (urban, suburban, highway).
  • External factors such as weather conditions, holidays, or special events.

 

Goal

Provide accurate time-series demand forecasts (hourly/daily) per charging station, enabling operators and planners to:

  • Allocate charging points efficiently.
  • Reduce wait times for EV users.
  • Optimize investment in EV infrastructure.

 

Outputs

  • Predicted demand curves (number of EVs per time unit, per station).
  • Station-level insights (peak usage windows, underutilized stations).
  • Scenario forecasts (e.g., rainy day vs sunny day, weekday vs weekend).
