Frequently Asked Questions
How many EV charging stations are currently unavailable in the US?
As of May 9, 2026, the AFDC shows 1,663 stations marked temporarily unavailable — about 1.9% of all tracked stations in the US.
Where does this data come from?
Directly from the U.S. Department of Energy's Alternative Fuels Data Center (AFDC). We query the AFDC API weekly with status=T to get temporarily unavailable stations, completely separate from the status=E (active) data used by the rest of the site.
What does "temporarily unavailable" mean?
AFDC status=T means a station has been reported or flagged as not currently operational. Causes include hardware failures, payment system outages, maintenance windows, vandalism, or software issues. It does not include permanently closed stations.
How often is this data updated?
Every Sunday at midnight UTC alongside the rest of the site's weekly AFDC data refresh. The "Data as of" date above shows the most recent update.
