STATION PLANNING

Preparing a charging station plan.

Know what information to bring to a discussion about equipment, capacity and the scope of your charging station project.

TSI team · EV charging guide

A charging station plan starts with the vehicles it will serve and the conditions at the site. Use the checklist below to prepare for an initial discussion; information you do not yet have can be added during consultation. Equipment and supporting work need to be considered together.

Information to prepare.

Planning inputs and decisions for a charging station
Planning inputWhat to prepareWhat to discuss
Vehicles and charging patternsVehicle models, connectors, the number of vehicles and the time available for charging.Equipment compatibility and simultaneous charging needs.
Site and accessCity, available space, parking positions, vehicle access and your relationship to the site.Station layout, charger placement, cable routes and maintenance access.
Power supplyAvailable electrical capacity and details of any existing connection.Power requirements and the scope of electrical work.
Scope of workEquipment, installation, permitting and on-site work requirements.Work to be specified in the proposal.
Funding and ongoing serviceLand and funding readiness for SPKLU Mitra, along with maintenance needs.Proposal scope, handover and maintenance terms.

When choosing a charger, check the vehicle’s connector, voltage, current and protocol requirements. The kW rating is the charger’s total power; the power received by the vehicle also depends on its capabilities and charging conditions.

Understand responsibilities and handover.

Under the SPKLU Mitra Built to Transfer scheme, the partner provides the land and funding. TSI submits the application to PLN, and the station is handed over to the charging station entrepreneur after commissioning is complete. Connection details, the scope of work, documents and acceptance criteria are discussed in the proposal and project agreement.

Routine maintenance forms part of the full-station service process. Its scope, duration and terms follow the proposal. SPKLU TSI covers stations built and funded by TSI; the terms of each project are discussed separately.

Use an example to inform your planning.

Lot66 Mega Kuningan has six DC chargers rated at 120 kW each and an 865 kVA PLN connection, with commissioning in March 2026. This documentation presents a TSI Station portfolio project within the PT Starvo Global Energi ecosystem.

Use this example to understand how equipment, power supply and the scope of work relate to one another. The configuration for your site still needs to be discussed based on the vehicles and site conditions.

Gather the information you already have, then choose the consultation option that suits your project plan.

These guides provide a starting point for consultation. Equipment suitability and the scope of work depend on vehicle data and site conditions.
