How profitability scores work in Yellowknife

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 Yellowknife specifically, our model factors local commute corridors, the existing footprint of 2 DC fast and 3 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.
