Where does Illinois need truck charging?
We map fleet demand against charging supply — and show you exactly where the gaps are, and where to close them. Powered by Placematic and real charging infrastructure data.
We measure where trucks run — using logistics corridors, traffic and commercial activity.
We map where chargers are — every public charging location on the road today.
We find where they don't match — and rank the best places to build first.
Where trucks run vs. where chargers are
Same state, two layers. The left map shows need. The right map shows what exists. They don't line up — and that mismatch is the opportunity.
Based on logistics corridors, population and commercial activity — the warmer the area, the more trucks need charging there.
Every public charging location available today. Notice how thin coverage gets away from Chicago — while trucks keep running statewide.
Overlay them, and the gaps light up
Where high truck demand meets sparse charging, you get a gap — trucks operate there, but the nearest charger is out of practical range.
Each coral zone is an area with real truck activity but no charging within practical range.
Areas with truck activity but charging out of practical range — the problem to solve.
The best places to add a charger to close the most gap — the answer.
What's a gap? An area with real truck activity but no charging within practical range. Not every empty spot is a gap — only the ones where trucks actually need power.
{{ sweetSpotHeadline }}
A sweet-spot is a high-priority place to add a charger — where truck demand is strong but charging is out of range. We ranked {{ sweetSpotCountLabel }} across Illinois. Here are the 5 strongest, with #1 in full below.
