Identifying specific venues with higher weekend charging usage for electric vehicles in New Jersey or similar locations requires analyzing charging patterns and station utilization. However, some general trends and locations can be inferred:
- Shopping Centers and Retail Stores: These areas often see increased activity during weekends as people shop and run errands. Places like malls and large retail stores may have higher EV charging usage due to their popularity as weekend destinations.
- Tourist Attractions: Venues such as beaches, theme parks, or historical sites tend to have more visitors during weekends, potentially increasing the demand for EV charging.
- Restaurants and Movie Theaters: Facilities like Cinemark, which offers free EV charging at some locations, might experience higher charging usage on weekends due to increased patronage.
- Recreational Venues: Public parks, hiking trails, and other outdoor recreational areas can experience increased usage of EV charging stations on weekends when more people are off work and engaging in leisure activities.
For precise data on charging usage, one would typically need access to specific charging station data or studies tracking EV charging patterns. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center provides maps and information that can help identify public EV charging locations, but detailed usage patterns by venue type are not readily available without specific studies or data releases.
