How do I find EV charge points near me?

Enter your postcode in the search above. We geocode it and list every public charge point within about 15 miles, ranked by distance, with the operator, connector types and maximum power (kW) for each.

Where does this charge-point data come from?

From Open Charge Map, a community-maintained open dataset of public EV charging locations across the UK and worldwide. We sync the GB dataset and refresh it regularly.

What's the difference between a slow, fast and rapid charger?

Roughly: slow chargers are up to 7kW (a full charge overnight), fast chargers are 7–49kW (a few hours), and rapid/ultra-rapid chargers are 50kW and up, adding significant range in 20–40 minutes.

Do I need a subscription to use these charge points?

It depends on the operator — some rapid-charging networks (e.g. motorway services) accept contactless payment with no account, others require an app or RFID card. Check the operator shown against each charge point before you travel.
