Public charging points · 2025
Net change in publicly accessible charging points from published year-end stocks or comparable reference dates. One point represents an additional charging point; a negative point represents a net decrease. Not the number of new charging station locations or gross installations.
Coverage and quantity per point
33 of 239 countries and territories with data. Known values for other areas are marked separately in the table; unassigned epicentres are not a country.
Normal map view: 1 charging points / point. In focus: 1 charging points / point. Quantity controls do not change annual values.

What the map shows
The map simulates statistical times from annual data. It does not report individual events actually happening now. Point counters show currently visible simulated points; the timeline records only regular points observed during the session.
Random points within a country are a display model, not actual event locations or regional consumption hotspots. Earthquakes retain their historical USGS epicentres. Start examples are labelled and excluded from counts. Background gaps are not replayed.
Original years, national definitions and recording boundaries differ. Tables are alphabetical and do not provide a reliable country ranking. With mixed source years, the breakdown of death points is a display model, not an exact balance of causes. Point quantities and fade durations do not change annual values.

Net change in public charging point stock between two year ends; not all newly built stations or gross installations. One charging point provides one simultaneous charging opportunity; a site or station may contain several points. Private charging points excluded. Rounded IEA year-end stocks; differences may also include decommissioning, reporting changes or revisions. Only countries with all three published power classes in both years. Missing classes are not interpreted as zero; regional totals are not distributed to countries.

Net change in publicly accessible EVSE charging points across the UK between 1 January 2025 and 1 January 2026, both at 00:00; not gross installations or a count of sites. DfT EV chargers (EVSE) counts vehicles that can charge simultaneously. Both reference dates use this unit. Charging devices, connectors and sites are not mixed. EVCI0101 source Zapmap, official statistics in development. The regional EVSE time series starts in January 2025; Note 4 states greater confidence in granular recording from January 2026. Stock differences may include removals, revisions or reporting changes. Uses the complete published national EVSE stock directly, without artificial zero values for missing power classes. Private charging points excluded.
