EV Data Map is an EVSE and DC Fast Charger location analyzer that scores every potential charging site in Canada from 0 to 100 for DC Fast Charger ROI, combining ZEV registration density, daytime population, traffic, demographics, nearby competing chargers, and grid context. Enter any Vancouver address below for an instant ROI score, demand projection, and recommended charger configuration — including ZEVIP, British Columbia provincial, and utility incentive matching.
Vancouver boasts a diverse and competitive public charging landscape with 497 locations across 13 operators, led by ChargePoint Network at 56% of sites. This variety fosters a nuanced charging experience, as EV drivers can select based on power levels and amenities rather than brand allegiance. The 51 DC fast charging stations, averaging 103 kW, feature significant options with 27% exceeding 150 kW, catering to drivers seeking quicker charging solutions. While the city's DC fast locations represent only 10% of the total, they provide critical support alongside 446 Level 2 stations for longer dwell times. This mix creates unique opportunities to enhance the local charging network, particularly for new entrants focusing on high-power capabilities, ensuring that Vancouver's infrastructure evolves in line with driver preferences and needs.

Vancouver projects can typically stack three layers of funding: the federal Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP) covering up to 50% of project costs, British Columbia provincial programs for additional rebates and tax credits, and local utility incentives for grid-connected installations. Class 56 accelerated capital cost allowance (100% first-year writeoff) further improves project economics for commercial installations.

Every score on EV Data Map blends location demand, competition and operating economics into a single 0–100 number. For Canadian sites, demand draws on Statistics Canada ZEV registrations (Table 20-10-0024) projected forward to 2026 using province-level CAGR, daytime population from StatCan census tracts, and traffic patterns. Competition uses the count and quality of nearby chargers — including DC fast power, network reliability and dwell-fit. Operating economics include provincial electricity tariffs, demand-charge exposure, expected utilization, and capital cost for the recommended hardware mix.
For Vancouver specifically, our model factors local commute corridors, the existing footprint of 51 DC fast and 446 Level 2 sites, and the dwell profile of surrounding land use. The result is a per-address score plus a recommended configuration — number of stalls, target power level and network — that maximises projected revenue.
