How to Use This EV Charging Stations Map

Enter a place or city and a search radius, then click Search Place to load charging stations from OpenStreetMap in that area. Search Current Map instead loads results around wherever you've panned or zoomed to. Combine "Public access only" and "Free charging only" to narrow results to stations anyone can use without a fee.

About the Data

Charging station locations and their access/fee tags come from OpenStreetMap contributors, not directly from charging network operators. That means connector types, exact pricing, and real-time availability aren't shown here — treat this as a way to find candidate stations, then confirm details through the network's own app before relying on one for a trip.

Why Charging Speed Matters More Than Just Finding a Plug

A station's power rating determines whether a stop takes minutes or hours, and it varies enormously. Slow AC charging, roughly 7-22 kW, is designed for overnight or all-day charging rather than a quick stop. DC fast charging, 50 kW and up, typically adds a usable amount of range in under an hour. Ultra-rapid chargers, 150 kW or more, can add significant range in around 20 minutes — closer to a fuel stop than a charging session. Since this map only confirms that a station exists and roughly what it costs, checking the network's own app for the actual power rating is the difference between planning a quick stop and accidentally planning a multi-hour wait.

FAQ

Does this show connector type or charging speed?

No, this map focuses on location, public access, and whether charging is free. Check the charging network's own listing for connector and speed details.

Why does a station show as "restricted or paid" when I know it's free?

The map reflects whatever access and fee tags exist in OpenStreetMap. If a station has been recently added or updated, that information may not be tagged accurately yet.

Why does charging speed matter so much if this map doesn't show it?

Because it's the biggest factor in how long a stop actually takes. Slow AC charging (roughly 7-22 kW) can take several hours for a meaningful top-up, DC fast charging (50 kW and up) often gets a usable charge in under an hour, and ultra-rapid chargers (150 kW+) can add significant range in around 20 minutes. Since this map only confirms a station exists and whether it's public or free, always check the charging network's own app for the connector type and power rating before planning a stop around it.

Can I see real-time charger availability?

No, this map doesn't connect to live charging network status — use the relevant network's app for real-time availability.
