EV Charging Map

Ready to power up your EV on the go? Find the perfect charging station near you, whether a convenient public charger, a speedy DC fast charger, or even a Tesla Supercharger.

A Comprehensive Guide to Public EV Charging

There are three main charging levels you will find on the EV Charging map, they include:

Level 1 EV Charger

The Level 1 charger uses the same standard 120-volt plug as your toaster, offering a leisurely charging speed of about 3-5 miles per hour. The Level 1 Charger is perfect for topping off overnight at home, it could be better for EV drivers with ample time for charging since this is a slow EV charger.

Level 2 EV Charger

A Level 2 Charger a 240-volt outlet (similar to your dryer), delivers a powerful punch, adding 20-30 miles of range per hour, perfect for daily commutes or overnight charging for longer trips.

DC Fast Charging

DC Fast charging stations pump out high-voltage direct current, adding 60-200 miles of range in just 30 minutes! Ideal for long road trips or when time is tight, they use unique connectors like CCS or CHAdeMO (depending on your car).

Understanding Outlet Types Available on the EV Charging Map

The EV Charging map contains various EV Charging outlet types as outlined below:

US Wall Outlet: This standard household outlet offers slow charging (Level 1) and is not ideal for public charging.
J-1772: This is North America’s most common Level 2 charging connector. Most EVs use this.
CHAdeMO: This connector offers DC fast charging and is common in Japan and parts of Europe. Not all EVs support it.

Tesla Roadster: This is specific to the Tesla Roadster and irrelevant to most other EVs.
NEMA 14-50: This high-voltage outlet can offer Level 2 charging with appropriate adapters.
Tesla S HPWC: This is specific to the Tesla Model S and X home chargers and irrelevant for public charging.

Tesla Supercharger: This Tesla-exclusive network offers DC fast charging for Tesla vehicles only.
SAE Combo DC CCS: This connector offers DC fast charging and is gaining popularity in North America and Europe. Some EVs use it alongside the J-1772.
Type 2 (Mennekes): This is the most common Level 2 charging connector in Europe and other regions.

Type 3: This is a less common Level 2 connector used in some European countries.
BS1363: This standard household plug offers slow Level 1 charging similar to a US wall outlet. While technically usable, it’s not ideal for public charging due to its slowness and potential overloading risks.
UK Commando: This industrial-grade plug provides higher power Level 2 charging (up to 43kW). Look for dedicated commando charging points, often used for boats or RVs.

Three Phase 32A (UK): This three-phase outlet offers even higher power (up to 22kW) but is primarily used for industrial applications and not readily available for public EV charging.
Europlug: This two-pronged plug is common in continental Europe.
AS3112: This is the standard Level 2 connector in Australia and New Zealand. It resembles a larger J-1772 but is not compatible.

China BG/T: This is China’s standard Level 2 connector and is incompatible with vehicles used elsewhere.
China BG/T 2: This is China’s DC fast charging connector and is incompatible with non-Chinese EVs.

Tips for Using These EV Public Station Outlets

Here is a guide on using EV Public station outlets:

Identify your EV’s compatibility: Check your car’s manual or manufacturer’s website to see which of the above-mentioned EV outlet types it uses.
Research availability: Use our EV Charging map to research the outlets near you and their availability.
EV Charging Adapters: EV charging adapters exist for some outlet types, but availability and safety vary. Use them with caution and only if approved by your car manufacturer.
