As the EV charging world keeps accelerating, Charge Point Operators (CPOs) and turnkey EV charger installers face a growing challenge: how to manage infrastructure upgrades more efficiently while scaling up. That’s where Wevo Energy steps in with something fresh and powerful—the Site Capacity Index. Think of it as your energy dashboard on steroids, designed to give you clear, actionable insights into how your sites are performing and when it might be time to plan for growth.
The Challenge: Managing Site Energy Consumption
Operators and site hosts are always looking to get the most out of their existing energy setups without diving into expensive electrical upgrades. Our solutions have been helping with that for a while, but let’s face it—every site has its limits. That’s where the Site Capacity Index shines. It helps you recognize when you’re nearing those limits, so you can act before it becomes an issue.
Meet the Site Capacity Index
The Site Capacity Index is like having a sixth sense for energy management. It gives you a crystal-clear view into what extent your sites’ electric infrastructure is utilized, all wrapped up in sleek, easy-to-read dashboard graphs. No more squinting at spreadsheets or guessing. Here’s what it does:
- Monitors daily energy usage percentages
- Highlights your busiest, “pushing it to the max” sites
- Tracks trends over time to help with future planning
We crunch the numbers daily and present them in simple, intuitive dashboards so you’re always in the know.
Key Features and Benefits
- Top Utilization Infrastructure Sites: Spotlight on High-Impact Locations
Want to know which of your sites are working the hardest? The dashboard ranks the top 10 locations with the highest infrastructure utilization over the past 30 days. This means you can:
- Spot sites nearing their capacity limits before they become a problem
- Focus your upgrade efforts where they matter most
- Allocate resources smarter, based on real data
With this kind of insight, you’re not just reacting to issues—you’re staying ahead of them.

You can easily flip through data from your top 20 sites, getting a clear picture of performance over time. It’s like having a crystal ball for your energy management.
Staying Ahead with Proactive Capacity Planning
What really sets this apart is how the system automatically flags sites that hit 80% utilization. This isn’t just about early warnings—it’s about giving you the time and insights needed to be proactive. With this feature, you can put plans into action well in advance, ensuring you’re not just reacting to issues but actively preventing them. It helps you anticipate potential constraints, schedule upgrades strategically, and stay ahead of any capacity challenges before they even come close to disrupting your operations. With the 80% flag, the early heads-up means you can:
- Plan infrastructure upgrades before they’re urgent
- Avoid unhappy EV drivers whose cars may not be fully charged by morning
- Keep services running smoothly
It’s all about being proactive, not reactive.
