Measure how intensively electric bicycle charging ports are used. Combine session count and plug-in duration with port availability and downtime to estimate time-based utilization and sessions per port.
Time-based utilization shows how much practical charging capacity is occupied. Values above 100% indicate that recorded demand cannot fit without overlap, queues, or longer availability.
This is not electrical load factor. Simultaneous power sharing and energy delivered require separate measurements.
The default scenario multiplies daily sessions by average duration to obtain occupied port-hours, then divides by usable port-hours after downtime.
The formula section identifies each driver. Change one input at a time to see its effect while holding the others constant.
Yes, but rated values may reflect controlled test conditions. Measured capacity, consumption, session, or charging data usually gives a more representative planning result.
Use measured outlet and battery energy when available. Otherwise, treat the loss or efficiency field as an explicit scenario assumption rather than a universal value.
Temperature, battery controls, equipment limits, riding conditions, maintenance, and measurement timing can all change the outcome.
No. It is a planning estimate based on the values entered and does not replace vehicle, battery, charger, or warranty documentation.
| Metric | Definition |
|---|---|
| Occupied port-hours | Sessions multiplied by average plug-in duration |
| Available port-hours | Ports multiplied by operating hours, less downtime |
| Utilization | Occupied divided by available port-hours |
