Help find good value charge points along journey

Once have entered a route and recommended charge points along journey have been identified, would like the ability to treat that as the “baseline” journey and then be provided options including:

  • Minimal cost: any adjustments that would enable better priced charge points to be adopted, indicating the impact to time or journey length

  • Minimal wait: any adjustments that might reduce the queue time and/or charge time, indicating the impact to cost

  • Minimum journey time (if not already the case)

  • Best for battery health: for example, avoiding super fast charging on very hot days, prioritising any slow pre-charging at source (eg: charge NCM to 100% within hour of departure) and/or arriving at lower charge (requiring slow charge asap after arrival) depending on vehicle’s battery chemistry

  • Food stop: factor in a longer stop (potentially enabling lower rate and lower charge speed) so long as food venue short walk away from charge points.

  • Best detours of major days: : if not in hurry, factor in prior user feedback about how nice an area is (eg: Beechworth very scenic worth detour off Hume for drivers that like winding roads and to charge somewhere with a nice view or with nice walks nearby)

  • Leg stretch: similar to detour, but more focus on doing a walk while vehicle is charging.
