144Stations within 5 km

Corridor sites behave differently from urban ones. The model uses a wider supply radius on corridors (25 km for cars, 30 km for trucks) than in cities (3 km), because a driver on a highway will divert far further than one in traffic. A corridor cell scoring lower than an urban one is not necessarily a worse opportunity — it is being judged against a much larger catchment.

These are area centroids at roughly 5.3 km² resolution outside Hyderabad — starting points for investigation, not plots.

Existing public charging along the route

144 station record(s) sit within 5 km of a cell on this corridor.

Operators present: Statiq (122), ChargeZone (8), Hindustan Petroleum Corporation (8), Reliance BP Mobility (4), Bolt.Earth (IN) (1), (Unknown Operator) (1).

Electric bus services on this corridor

Hyderabad to Karimnagar — JBM Auto / TGSRTC (35 buses)

Bus charging is a captive depot-and-terminus load contracted to an operator, not walk-in forecourt demand. A corridor carrying e-buses signals a counterparty worth approaching, not passing traffic that will fill your guns.

What still needs verifying

Traffic — modelled from road class and population, not counted.
Grid capacity — sanctioned load at a specific plot is unknown. Across Telangana, higher-scoring cells correlate with lower sanctioned capacity (p=0.006), so connection cost and lead time may be worse than the score suggests.
Land — availability, price and access sit entirely outside the model.
Real competition — including chargers no public source lists.
