A system can obtain data that is sourced from an operator of a power grid and includes data items provided on a per-segment basis for feeders. The system can branch the data items into respective feeder groups and generate a data structure based on an adjacency map for segments of a feeder group. The system can construct a feeder load profile based for a feeder on the ordered data structure. The feeder load profile depicts a load capacity for the feeder as a function of a distance from the substation. The system can then determine, based on the feeder load profile, that an available load capacity at the interconnection point is below a threshold required to support an electric vehicle (EV) charging station and identify upgrades based on variations in the feeder load profile to support the EV charging station.
