189 Siemens ITS Digital Lab and Siemens Energy Business Advisory are working with StreeLight Data to help communities prepare for the growth in electric vehicle (EV) and to improve EV infrastructure planning.  

Siemens will offer its energy and EV infrastructure consultancy and analytic capabilities while StreetLight will provide technology that allows Big Data to be integrated with other data sources.

StreetLight uses Big Data-derived multi-mode analytics that provide insights into the sources of traffic flows. Siemens has used this data to quantify EV impact on the electric grid for more accurate infrastructure deployment planning.

As part of the deal, Siemens will combine its resources for synthesising information from different parties with StreeLight’s mobility data to offer customisable technical solutions.
