Electro App - Showcase Project

My name is Piotr and I would like to present my new app for electric vehicle drivers. The app enables drivers to easily rank and compare public electric vehicle charge points based on driver priorities and the experience they want. Whether this is absolute recharging speed or the presence of certain amenities, the goal is to quickly find and rank stations based on the requirement. For example if you would like to visit a Starbucks or a Costco during charging we will find the chargers near you or at your expected charging stop which have these amenities and brands nearby. Or if you would like to avoid chargers in isolated or dodgy locations when recharging alone at night we can also help. The reason why such functionality matters is that it can easily take 30 minutes to charge even on the highest powered electric vehicle chargers, and no in person support is present at charging stations. Thus the environment at electric vehicle stations matters a lot more than at gasoline stations and often drivers would like to spend the extra time doing something else than just sitting in the car. We use OpenChargeMaps data for charge point locations and we will send OpenChargeMaps data on new chargers added via the app to contribute to the community! We also use crowdsourced data to power a machine learning model which predicts how busy charge points are expected to be. We have coverage in the US and UK. It is possible to download the app from our website www.electro-app.com and any comments you have about the app and how it works would be super useful! I’m appending some points from Deloitte surveys which provide further support as to why such an app might be helpful to drivers: 36% of EV drivers are prepared to wait between 21 and 40 minutes to charge from empty to 80% battery capacity 25% are prepared to wait between 41 minutes and 1 hour 21% EV drivers look for retail and hospitality amenities at public charging stations 80.3% of EV drivers feel vulnerable when charging their EV In one survey 88.5% of the drivers chose not to use a charge point because they felt unsafe
