  • Grants are treated as reducing the depreciable basis (as if excluded from income); if a program's grant is taxable income instead, basis stays at cost and the grant is taxed in year 1.
  • The 30C credit is computed on cost not funded by grants and reduces basis by the credit amount, as the statute requires.
  • Grants and the credit are modelled as year-0 cash; in practice grants pay on completion and the credit is realised on the year-1 tax return.

Incentive programs

Programs that may apply; amounts modelled above where rules are known

  • Federal 30C Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Creditfederalverify

    30% of equipment + install, up to $100,000 per item (6% base; 30% with prevailing wage/apprenticeship)

    Only in eligible tracts (low-income or non-urban); the demographics block tests the site's tract. Under current law, property must be placed in service by June 30, 2026 — confirm the deadline with a tax adviser before counting it. Modelled in the projection (reduces the depreciable basis).

  • Rhode Island Energy — Electric Transportation (EV make-ready) programutilityverify

    Utility pays for make-ready infrastructure from the grid to the charger pad (up to 100% in disadvantaged communities, typically 50–100% otherwise)

    Site-host applies before construction; DC fast eligibility and caps change by program year.

  • RI Office of Energy Resources — charger grants (Charge Up RI / Power Up RI)stateverify

    $10,000 per Level 2 charger up to 6 ($60,000) and $50,000 per DC fast unit up to $100,000 at publicly accessible sites

    Amounts confirmed by the owner 2026-09-26; round-based, so check the open solicitation and eligible site types. Applied automatically in the incentive stack.

  • National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) — Rhode Islandstateverify

    Up to 80% of eligible DC fast-charging costs along designated Alternative Fuel Corridors (RI-138 / East Main Rd is not a designated corridor; US-1, I-95, I-295, RI-146, RI-4 are)

    Corridor sites only; 4 ports × 150 kW minimum.

  • Bonus depreciation / MACRSfederalverify

    Charging equipment is 5-year MACRS property; bonus depreciation per current tax law

    Tax treatment, not a cash incentive; modelled in the after-tax projection (100% bonus by default, 5-year MACRS for the rest).

Methodology

In plain words

Score

Six signals, each 0 to 100, weighted Traffic 25, Competition 20, Dwell 15, Demand 15, Visibility and access 15, Site readiness 10. Traffic scales the frontage road's daily count from 2,000 (0) to 30,000 (100). Visibility adds frontage stalls (up to 50 for 10 or more), entrances drawn (15 for one, 25 for two or more) and the distance from the stalls to the road centreline (25 within 100 ft, fading to 0 at 300 ft). Dwell weights the places within half a mile by how long they hold a driver (supermarkets and hotels 4, restaurants and gyms 3, pharmacies 2, other shops and banks 1; places within a quarter mile count double) and saturates at 80 points. Demand blends tract median household income (45%), population density (35%) and the EV share (20%). Competition starts at 100 and loses 12 per DC port within a mile and 4 per further DC port within three miles; a busy road with no fast charging within three miles scores 100 as a gap. Readiness counts confirmed stalls toward the 10-stall grant configuration, placement issues in the saved layout, power nearby and the zoning verdict.

Utilization

Expected kWh per port per day starts from published regional averages for public fast charging and is multiplied by site factors: frontage traffic, things to do nearby, competing chargers, local EV adoption, parking demand seen across the survey flights, visibility and charger power. The p10 and p90 bound the estimate; confidence reflects how many of those inputs the site actually has. Year one starts at a share of steady state and ramps up over the first years, then grows and saturates.

Pro forma and taxes

Revenue is ports times kWh per day times price times 365, scaled by the ramp. Cost is energy at the levelized electricity rate plus the network services fee on DC energy (escalating) and a flat network and maintenance charge per L2 unit. Year 0 is hardware plus install, less cash grants and the federal 30C credit (30% of cost not funded by grants, capped per item, only when the tract qualifies). Taxes: the depreciable basis is gross cost less the credit and, by default, less grants; bonus depreciation expenses most of it in year one and the rest follows 5-year MACRS; tax is the rate times net less depreciation, so early years produce a shield. After-tax cash flow, NPV, IRR and payback follow from that. NPV is discounted at the rate set above; payback is interpolated within the year the cumulative turns positive.

Grants

Grant line items apply each program's rules to the layout: per-unit amounts, unit caps and program caps, by charger type. Lines marked verify are curated from program pages and should be confirmed against the current solicitation before relying on them.

What this is not

Only public signals are used: public traffic counts, the public station registry, map amenities, census tract data, state imagery and this portfolio's own survey. No proprietary charger reliability or utilization data. Treat the score as a ranking aid between your own sites, and the pro forma as a model of stated assumptions, not a forecast.
