Alternative Fuel Station Locations and Attributes in New York

New York State data details locations and attributes for stations offering alternative fuels like electricity, hydrogen, natural gas, biodiesel, and ethanol. The dataset includes features such as fuel type, connector types, pricing, access times, and geographic coordinates. It is maintained by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze the spatial distribution of EV charging ports using the 'EV Connector Types' and 'Latitude' columns.
• Model station accessibility by correlating 'Access Days Time' with 'Owner Type Code' and 'Groups With Access Code'.
• Compare fuel availability across counties using 'Fuel Type Code', 'Counties 2', and 'CNG Dispenser Num'.
• Assess hydrogen station readiness by examining 'Hydrogen Status Link' and 'Hydrogen Pressures' fields.

Strengths

• Includes multiple alternative fuel types: electricity, hydrogen, CNG, LPG, biodiesel, and ethanol.
• Provides detailed station attributes like connector types, pressures, dispenser counts, and access codes.

Limitations

• Sample size and total row count are unknown.
• Contains columns with French-language data (e.g., 'Access Days Time (French)'), indicating potential data consistency issues.
