Before the investment
Guesswork is how chargers sit idle
A good charging site is not simply a cheap plot with passing traffic
Cheap land
A low-cost site does not necessarily mean a good charging opportunity
Traffic without demand
Traffic counts show vehicles passing by. They do not necessarily show charging demand
Grid surprises
A site can look attractive until the required grid upgrade is discovered
Uncertain payback
A spreadsheet can produce an attractive return without properly accounting for utilisation, energy costs and infrastructure requirements
Site intelligence
Score the site across four investment factors
SitePredict combines demand, competition, grid and financial signals to help you compare potential charging locations
Competition
Understand the charging landscape around the site
Existing chargers
Charger density
Network coverage
Potential coverage gaps
Grid
Identify available grid information and potential infrastructure requirements
Grid readiness
Transformer signals where available
Potential upgrade requirements
Money
Translate the site opportunity into an investment view
Expected utilisation
Charging sessions
Energy cost
Demand charges
Revenue assumptions
Payback
From location to investment case
Don't just find a location. Understand the business case
SitePredict connects location intelligence with charging economics before you commit to infrastructure
A location can have strong traffic but weak charging demand
Another can have strong demand but expensive grid requirements
Another can have cheaper land but poor utilisation
Compare before you commit
Compare three sites before you invest
Do not approve a charging site in isolation. Compare the shortlist side by side

SitePredict questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes. SitePredict can be used to evaluate and compare candidate locations, subject to the availability of the required data for those locations.
The supported forecast period depends on the SitePredict configuration. The actual forecast period should be confirmed for the specific product deployment.
SitePredict can use demand, traffic, dwell, destination, charging competition, grid and financial inputs, depending on the location and available data.
No. SitePredict is intended to support the early investment and site-selection process. It does not replace a physical site survey, electrical assessment, grid-connection study or other specialist due diligence where required.
Yes. SitePredict is designed to help teams compare candidate sites before making an investment decision.
If you operate a charging network, Gaadin's White-label CSMS can support charging-network operations. If the site is part of a building or commercial property, Gaadin's Energy Management Platform can help manage building energy and EV charging.
