The United States now has more than 79,800 public EV charging stations open for use, covering every state from California’s 20,500+ locations to growing networks in Wyoming and South Dakota. Use the interactive map below to explore every publicly accessible charging location, filter by charging level, and find stations near you.
Select a state below to explore local charging infrastructure, including station counts, DC fast charger locations, top networks, and connector types available.
DC fast chargers deliver between 50 kW and 350 kW of power, adding 100 to 200 miles of range in 20 to 45 minutes. Common connector standards include CCS (Combined Charging System), CHAdeMO, and NACS (Tesla’s North American Charging Standard, now widely adopted across the industry). DC fast chargers are typically found along major highways and at commercial locations.
Level 2 Charging (AC)
Level 2 stations use a J1772 connector (or NACS for newer vehicles) and deliver 3 kW to 19 kW, adding roughly 10 to 30 miles of range per hour. These are the most common public stations and are found at workplaces, shopping centers, hotels, parking garages, and multifamily housing.
Level 1 Charging
Level 1 uses a standard 120V outlet and adds about 3 to 5 miles of range per hour. Rare at public stations, it appears mainly at RV parks and some workplace lots. Most EV drivers rely on Level 1 only at home when a dedicated Level 2 charger is not installed.
About This Data
Station data comes from the Alternative Fuels Station (AFDC) database, maintained by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) under contract to the U.S. Department of Energy. The AFDC tracks all publicly accessible alternative fueling stations in the United States. Records include location, connector types, network affiliation, port counts, pricing, and open/closed status, updated continuously as new stations are verified.
