EV charging isn’t one load. It’s four — and they hit your grid in very different places.
Residential overnight charging, workplace midday peaks, DC fast-charging spikes, and fleet depot overnight blocks each stress different feeders at different times. LoadSEER models all four by charger type, at circuit-level resolution.
Why charger type disaggregation matters
Most EV load forecasting treats electric vehicles as a single growth curve. That misses the key planning variable: location. Residential L2 concentrates on residential feeders in the evening. Workplace L2 hits commercial corridors at midday. Public DC fast charging creates large point loads near highway corridors. Fleet depot charging reaches MW scale at specific locations overnight. LoadSEER forecasts each type separately at parcel and circuit level.

What LoadSEER delivers
Parcel-level EV adoption modeling
Models EV adoption at the individual parcel level using economic drivers, demographic data, housing type, income, and vehicle ownership patterns.
Explore geospatial forecasting →Charger type disaggregation
Residential L2, workplace L2, public DC fast, and fleet/depot as separate load classes — each with distinct adoption trajectories, load profiles, and geographic footprints.
About LoadSEER →Managed vs. unmanaged scenarios
Models both unmanaged charging and managed scenarios reflecting demand response, smart charging, and TOU rate incentives — quantifying infrastructure deferral value.
IDP support →Multi-scenario adoption
Reference, moderate, and high EV adoption scenarios simultaneously to bound capital planning uncertainty.
Multi-scenario analysis →Capacity headroom impact
Identifies which feeders and substations will reach capacity constraints under each scenario and when.
Capacity headroom reporting →IDP regulatory support
Transparent, documented, multi-scenario EV load forecasts meeting commission standards for IDP filings.
