Missing EA CHAdeMO chargers in Waco, Ozona and Fort Stockton, TX

Recommended Posts

Description: ABRP is missing the CHAdeMO stalls in Waco, TX, Ozona, TX and Fort Stockton, TX

 

According to EA website as well as PlugShare there are CHAdeMO stalls at the EA locations in these 3 cities but they don't show up when planning routes on ABRP. This causes very poor routes when trying to plan trips in a Nissan LEAF. It seems likely that other cities are affected as well but these are the 3 near me that I've noticed.

I checked OpenChargeMap to see if I could add the missing stations there... but OCM correctly shows the CHAdeMO stations at these locations (See attached screenshots).

Why is ABRP not showing CHAdeMO connectors at these locations when they are correctly listed on both Electrify America's website as well as OpenChargeMap?

There's also the issue of ABRP always listing the charging cost at $1 for all Electrify America CHAdeMO stops. You can also see that issue in the plan I linked above.

The $1 issue was a bug, should be fixed now (but may take a couple of hours to ripple through caches). 

I see the Ozona Chademo is marked as out-of-order in our data from EA, which is why it is not included. This is of course an issue which we need to think more about how to handle; a far off charger being off-line - should it be included in planning or not?

Thanks, I see this now. EA's website doesn't do a good job of making this clear: If you just go to their website and click "Locate Charger" it shows these CHAdeMO's as being available... But if you actually "Log in" to the EA website then suddenly you can see that these stations are down.

I actually appreciate that ABRP uses this when planning, but I think there should be a toggle in the settings that lets you plan routes that stop at stations that are currently unavailable because I might be planning a trip that I don't intend to actually disembark on for another several weeks. (IE: Just to have an idea of time requires, cost, etc)

Agreed, something we haven't had time to implement yet.
