Electric vehicle charging network
An electric vehicle charging network is an infrastructure system of charging stations to recharge electric vehicles. The term electric vehicle infrastructure (EVI) may refer to charging stations in general or the network of charging stations across a nation or region.
The proliferation of charging stations can be driven by charging station providers or government investment, and is a key influence on consumer behaviour in the transition from internal combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles. While charging network vendors have in the past offered proprietary solutions limited to specific manufacturers (ex. Tesla), vendors now usually supply energy to electric vehicles regardless of manufacturer.
Charging station mapping services typically give the location, power, network, and connector type of publicly available charging stations, while more advanced services give the price and live availability of stations. Large charging networks provide maps of their own stations for customers.
PlugShare is a crowdsourced map of public, private and residential charging locations. The site uses Google Maps to provide a map of charging locations and their own database to filter by charging type. Public chargers, private chargers, and residential charging locations are listed. The service provides an app for iOS and Android which allows users to locate chargers near their current location. An account is needed to view private persons' charging locations, as these locations are at the homes or businesses of Plugshare members. Plugshare was acquired by EVgo in 2021. Plugshare is one of many leading sources of where charge stations exist, however plenty public and private stations are not updated in the app.
Open Charge Map is a non-commercial EV charging data service. They state the aim of providing a single point of reference, in a field of independent, conflicting charging data services.
Zapmap is an electric vehicle charging mapping and payment service in the UK. They share their statistics with the Department for Transport, and many local councils direct their residents to the service for locating charging stations.
OpenStreetMap is an open source map of the world which includes rich support of descriptions on charging stations. The map can be used by anyone under the ODbL license.
The Renault–Nissan Alliance made agreements by 2010 to promote emission-free mobility in France, Israel, Portugal, Denmark and the U.S. state of Tennessee. As of 2010, Nissan planned to install 200-volt level 2 charging stations at 2,200 Nissan dealers in Japan, and level 3 fast charging stations at 200 dealers.[needs update]
