Welcome to EVI-LOCATE

The Electric Vehicle Infrastructure – Locally Optimized Charging Assessment Tool and Estimator (EVI-LOCATE) is a comprehensive design tool that helps you create an electric vehicle (EV) charging station deployment plan, from layout to cost estimates.

The following key data can help you start a site analysis:

• Charger requirements – desired number of charging ports and power levels
• Existing utility assets – transformers and service panels that might connect to your chargers.

You do not need to have all your site information to start using the tool. You can save your work and edit your project later. You can also review sticking points with EV charging experts at NLR. Contact us at evi-locate@nlr.gov if you have any questions.
