PlugShare DataTool

Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Data & Analysis

The PlugShare DataTool provides access to the most comprehensive EV charging station database available today. Clients leverage our database to steer their market research analyses, infrastructure planning, charging site prospecting, public agency reporting activities and much more.

We built the DataTool on top of the Tableau business intelligence and data visualization platform, which can be used by non-technical users to perform deep analysis, generate powerful charts and graphs, download spreadsheets with custom variables, and access interactive dashboards created by the PlugShare team.

EXTREME GRANULARITY MEANS EXTREME ANALYTIC POWER

The PlugShare DataTool contains a deep set of location and station data fields that enable a customized report structure tailored to each client’s specific strategy, deliverables, and deployment. Part of the “secret sauce” is the inclusion of our proprietary driver-based location ratings, PlugScores. It’s easy to group variables by PlugScore, allowing you to use driver sentiment to compare precise geographic areas, CPOs, hardware makers, charging speeds and much more.

Here’s just a partial list of the fields you can use to slice and dice the data:

  • State/Province/Admin Units
  • Amenities and Points of Interest nearby
  • Precise latitude/longitude
  • Network (CPO)
  • Pricing
  • Chargers per location
  • Free vs. pay
  • Hours
  • Parking Type
  • Connector Type
  • DMA/CBSA
  • Utility Service Areas
  • Access Type (Public/Private/Workplace)
  • Charger hardware (EVSE) make and model
