About US EV Charging Stations

US EV Charging Stations is an independent directory of 86,981 public EV chargers across all 50 states, built from the U.S. Department of Energy's AFDC database and refreshed weekly. We are not owned by, and do not receive payment from, any charging network — our station listings and comparisons are the same regardless of brand.

Why this site exists

The federal government publishes the most complete public record of US EV charging infrastructure through the Alternative Fuels Data Center (AFDC) — but that raw data isn't easy to browse by city, compare across networks, or check for reliability. We built this site to turn that dataset into something a driver can actually use: state and city directories, network comparisons, hotel charging lookups, and a live outage tracker.

Everything here is derived from public, government-sourced data. We don't accept placement fees from charging networks, and no network can pay to rank higher in our listings or comparisons.

Where the data comes from

Every station record traces back to the U.S. DOE's Alternative Fuels Station Locator, maintained by NREL. Full sourcing, field definitions, and known data limitations are documented on our Data & Methodology page.

How often it's updated

An automated pipeline re-syncs from the AFDC API weekly and regenerates every state, city, network, and hotel page. Our last sync ran July 11, 2026.
