Second, it should meet the practical needs of being located near residential areas, apartments, schools, markets, bus routes, or major roads; places with high traffic of electric vehicles.
Finally, it must ensure safety and convenience, with safe entrances and exits that do not obstruct traffic, and can combine vehicle custody services or other public utilities.
