Why KiloPlot
Most EV site tools stop at the proposal. We keep going.
Site selection and design tools have made it fast to produce a layout and a number. What happens next, whether the site earns its return and whether your estimates were right, still lives in spreadsheets and memory. That's the part we built for.
The numbers go past the estimate.
A layout and a construction number are where underwriting starts. We forecast utilization for the new site, price electricity from the utility's actual tariff with demand charges, suggest a price against the local market, and finish with IRR, NPV and payback. No exporting to a spreadsheet model.
Forecasts that get checked.
Every project can lock its baseline and track the bids, the utility timeline and monthly charging against it. Over time you know which estimate lines run over, which utilities run late and which site types beat their forecasts.
Drawings your engineer can start from.
A plan set with a site plan, riser, one-line diagram, load calculation, panel schedules and details, plus a DXF, generated from the same design that produced the estimate.
Renders without a second vendor.
Turn the design into an interactive 3D model of the finished site, with chargers at the selected models' dimensions, for client presentations and the plan set.
