Now I recently discovered the site: EV Trip Planner
I am impressed, for an 18-19 year old CS undergrad, the site is really well built and helpful in general for EV trip planning.
I've interestingly been working on/off on a side project for the past 7 months related to optimizing EV trips. I'm kind of curious how much interest others would have in it... likely it will go on the back burner again since the Fall semester is quickly approaching (and as a CS professor teaching takes up my time while schools in session); however, if there is interest will definitely keep working on scaling it up for more than myself to use. Also, picked up some consulting work that starts next month, so working on things I get paid for takes precedence.
The biggest difference over the other planner will be it generates a path of which chargers to stop at (based on charger type and estimated charge rate) between start/end locations. I also had thoughts of then extending this to allow you to generate a computationally optimized road trip (multiple waypoints). Hope is it could be customized for different vehicle makes/models.
Current issues are speed as seemingly using free/open source mapping tools and trying to run the project on my laptop is not very feasible. Currently only working for US...
