As the demand for public EV charging continues to grow, selecting the right locations and designing cost-effective, future-proofed insfrastructure is critical to maximizing utilization and return on investment. This session will provide a deep dive into the key factors that drive high site performance, from leveraging local traffic data and amenity proximity to optimizing station placement for minimal capital expenditure. Attendees will gain insights into best practices for site engineering, including strategies to reduce trenching and conduit costs, integrate with existing electrical infrastructures, and maximize incentives. Additionally, we'll explore how driver-centric planning - such as charging speeds, visibility, safety, and accessibility - enhances the overall charging experience. Join us to learn how strategically deploy charging stations that balances operational efficiency with an exceptional user experience, ensuring a scalable and sustainable EV charging network.
