Electric Vehicle Charging Station Locations

This Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station Locations Finder is a tool that helps EV owners locate charging stations in their area throughout the US and Canada.

It includes a map showing the locations of charging stations and information about the types of charging connectors available, charger type, and their quantities.

Simply enter your location and the app will show you a list of nearby charging stations and their contacts.

DC Fast Charging (DCFC)

DC Fast Charging (DCFC) is a type of electric vehicle (EV) charging that uses direct current (DC) power to quickly charge an EV’s battery. This type of charging is typically done at public charging stations and can charge an EV’s battery to 80% or more within 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the specific charging station and the EV’s battery capacity.

DC fast charging stations use high-voltage direct current (DC) power to charge the EV’s battery, this technology can provide power to an EV battery at a much higher rate than Level 1 or 2 charging. DC fast charging stations are typically rated at 50 kW or more, but some stations are capable of providing power at rates up to 350 kW. This type of charger is common to see on highways and other high-traffic areas for EV drivers.

It’s important to note that not all electric vehicles can charge at DC fast charging stations, and some cars may have a limited charging rate, so it’s always a good idea to check your vehicle’s manual and the charging station’s specifications before starting a fast charge.

Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charger

A Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charger is a type of charging station that uses a 240-volt electrical outlet, similar to the kind used for home appliances such as a clothes dryer or oven, to charge an electric vehicle. These chargers typically provide a charging rate of about 3.7 to 6.6 kilowatts (kW), which is significantly faster than Level 1 chargers. It can take as little as 4 to 8 hours or more to fully charge an EV, depending on the size of the battery and the starting state of charge. These charging stations are commonly found in residential garages, workplaces, and public places, and can be easily installed by a professional electrician. They are generally more expensive than Level 1 chargers but offer much faster charging times.

Level 1 electric vehicle (EV) charger

A Level 1 electric vehicle (EV) charger is a type of charging station that uses a standard 120-volt household electrical outlet to charge an electric vehicle. These chargers typically provide a charging rate of about 1.4 kilowatts (kW), which is much slower than Level 2 or Level 3 chargers. It can take as long as 20 hours or more to fully charge an EV, depending on the size of the battery and the starting state of charge. However, Level 1 EV chargers are typically the most affordable option and can be easily installed by plugging into a standard household outlet, they are good for overnight charging or in situations where the EV is parked for a long time.
