Tesla Supercharger DCFC
The reliability gold standard. ~3,000 US sites, ~300 Canadian sites, hundreds opening monthly.
How to pay: Tesla account auto-billed (Tesla owners). Non-Tesla: Tesla app required at Magic Dock or NACS-equipped V4 sites.
Home / Charging / Public Networks
Every major public charging network in the US and Canada. DC fast charging, public Level 2, and municipal stations — but no destination chargers (hotel / AirBnB Level 2 sites that are private to their property). Filter by network, payment method, country, and Tesla compatibility.
US + Canada DC fast sites by network, from the NREL station database. Tesla's ~8,800 Supercharger sites (~83,000 stalls) would top this chart but are tracked separately — see the Supercharger map.
The reliability gold standard. ~3,000 US sites, ~300 Canadian sites, hundreds opening monthly.
How to pay: Tesla account auto-billed (Tesla owners). Non-Tesla: Tesla app required at Magic Dock or NACS-equipped V4 sites.
Born from the VW dieselgate settlement. 1,000+ sites with mostly 150 kW and 350 kW chargers.
How to pay: Tap-to-pay credit card at most sites (NEVI compliance), Electrify America app, or RFID. Plug & Charge supported on most newer EVs.
One of the oldest US fast-charging networks. Now ~1,100 sites, expanding rapidly with Tesla NACS rollouts.
How to pay: Credit card tap (NEVI sites), EVgo app, RFID. EVgo Plus membership ($7/mo) drops rates significantly in high-priced states like CA.
The 8-automaker joint venture (BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes, Stellantis, Toyota). Premium "Rechargery" sites with lounges and amenities.
How to pay: Credit card tap, Ionna app, or your automaker's app (myCadillac, myChevrolet, etc.). GM owners get 10% off via automaker app only.
Notable: Sites are flagship retail experiences — driver lounges, restrooms, refreshments. Many co-branded with Sheetz, Wawa, Casey's, Circle K (350 stations coming late 2026).
The largest network by station count — but mostly Level 2 public. Some DC fast at retail and grocery sites.
How to pay: ChargePoint app or RFID card (the original ChargePoint card). Newer stations have credit card readers. Note: ChargePoint owns the network infrastructure but pricing is set by site host (workplaces, retailers, etc.). Many are free.
Older mixed network. Has acquired SemaConnect (2022) and EVConnect for L2. Reliability has historically been spotty — improving since NEVI mandates.
How to pay: Blink app, RFID card, or credit card tap at newer stations. Membership ($10/yr) gets slightly lower rates.
Shell's EV charging arm — absorbed Greenlots (2019), NewMotion (Europe), and EV Connect (US, 2022). Often co-located at Shell gas stations.
How to pay: Shell Recharge app, RFID, credit card. The unified Shell account works across legacy Greenlots and EV Connect stations.
Rivian's own network. Now opening to non-Rivian EVs at most sites. Located near outdoor destinations (state parks, ski resorts, scenic routes).
How to pay: Rivian app (sign in, add payment, find site). Non-Rivian users access via the same Rivian app. Some sites have credit card tap.
Note: Site locations favor scenic/outdoor destinations rather than highway corridors — useful for road trips, less useful for commuting.
BP's North American charging network (formerly Amply Power). Growing fast with focus on commercial fleets and highway corridors.
How to pay: bp pulse app or credit card tap. Some stations co-located with Amoco/bp fuel stations.
Mercedes-Benz's own high-power charging network. Open to all EVs, focused on premium experience at flagship sites.

Oklahoma-based, expanding across SE/Central US. Built the first complete DCFC corridor across a single state (Oklahoma).
How to pay: Francis Energy app or credit card tap.
Reciprocal partnerships with Electrify America + new branded sites. Limited Hyundai/Genesis-branded stations growing.
How to pay: MyHyundai or Genesis Connected Services app (single sign-on across partner networks).
Ad-supported free Level 2 charging at retail destinations (Whole Foods, Macy's, malls). Owned by Shell since 2023 but operates separately.
How to pay: Mostly free — just plug in. Volta app for site discovery and any optional paid stations.
Workplace and multi-family Level 2 specialist. Acquired by Blink in 2022 — still operates under SemaConnect brand at many sites.
How to pay: SemaConnect app (or Blink app post-merger). Many sites are workplace/property-managed with free or token access.
Better known as a hardware company (Pulsar, Quasar V2H). Some public-access sites operate under their network.
EV Connect spinoff focused on multi-family housing + workplace. Growing into highway corridors.
Workplace and fleet specialist with smart load-balancing. Most sites are employer-managed.
Canada's largest network, headquartered in Quebec. 100,000+ stations across Canada and growing presence in US.
How to pay: FLO app, RFID card (FLO Pass), or credit card tap at newer stations. The FLO Pass works across Canada and US FLO stations.
Coast-to-coast fast-charging network on the Trans-Canada Highway. Co-located with Petro-Canada fuel stations.
How to pay: Petro-Points card via app, or credit card tap. Petro-Points loyalty rewards earned on charging.
Quebec's massive provincial network, operated by Hydro-Québec. By far the densest fast-charging coverage in any North American region.
How to pay: Circuit Électrique app, RFID, or credit card tap. Note: pricing is per-minute on DCFC (not per-kWh) in Quebec — favors fast-charging EVs.
Ontario's primary public DCFC network. Joint venture of Hydro One and Ontario Power Generation.
How to pay: Ivy app or credit card tap at all stations.
British Columbia's public fast-charging network. Run by BC Hydro, the provincial utility. Excellent coverage on highways.
How to pay: BC Hydro EV app, RFID, or credit card tap.
Sister network to Electrify America, focused on Canada. Smaller footprint but on most major highways.
How to pay: Electrify Canada app or credit card tap.
NB Power's network, primary public charging in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, and Newfoundland.
Quebec-based aggregator and operator. Their app maps every other network in addition to their own stations.
Best use: The ChargeHub app (Passport) lets you find and pay at most networks in Canada through one interface.
Beyond the major networks, you'll find chargers at:
City- and town-operated chargers at libraries, town halls, parking garages, parks, and transit centers. Often subsidized or free.
How to find: Use PlugShare or Open Charge Map — most municipal stations are listed. They typically run on a host network (ChargePoint, Blink, Volta), so payment uses that network's method.
Tip: Search city websites for "EV charging" — many cities list their public chargers and rates.
Increasingly common at park visitor centers, campgrounds, and lodges. Often part of state initiative + a host network.
Examples: Vermont State Parks have ChargePoint installations. National Park Service has expanded EV charging via the IRA + Great American Outdoors Act — Acadia, Yellowstone, Yosemite, Glacier all have public chargers near visitor centers.
How to pay: Same as host network (often free or low-cost for park visitors).
Local businesses, RV parks, grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants. Often run on a smaller network platform or completely independent.
Where to find: PlugShare is the best community-driven directory. Open Charge Map also lists thousands of independent stations.
Payment: Highly variable. Some accept credit cards directly, some use Bluetooth pairing, some require calling the host for activation.
You'll see two distinct types of Tesla-branded chargers in PlugShare and Tesla's own map:
| Type | Speed | Where | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supercharger (public) | 150-350 kW DC | Highway corridors, urban hubs | Tesla bills automatically |
| Destination Charger | 9.6-19.2 kW L2 (AC) | Hotels, restaurants, wineries, AirBnB hosts, resorts | Free for property guests / paid customers only |
Destination chargers are private to the property's customers — they're installed free by Tesla as long as the host agrees to make them available to guests. The hotel front desk may or may not authorize non-guests. You can't reliably show up and charge if you're not a customer of the host. That's why this page excludes them — they're not actually "public" in any reliable sense.
If you're traveling and staying at a Tesla Destination Charger host, great — call ahead to confirm it's working and you'll have access. For trip planning, route through real public networks instead.
Federal funding from the NEVI Formula Program ($5B over 5 years) requires every federally-funded charging station to:
So if you see a new EVgo, Electrify America, bp pulse, or Ionna station opened in 2024-2026, it almost certainly has credit card tap built in — no app required. Older sites are slowly being retrofitted.
ISO 15118 Plug & Charge lets the car identify and authorize itself the moment you plug in. No app, no card, no tap — just plug and go. Tesla has been doing this for years at Superchargers; the industry is finally catching up.
Networks supporting Plug & Charge today: Electrify America, Ionna, Mercedes-Benz HPC, bp pulse (newer), and growing.
Vehicle support varies by manufacturer — Ford, GM, Hyundai/Kia/Genesis, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche have it in most recent EVs. Tesla works natively at Superchargers; Tesla on non-Tesla networks still requires the network's app most places.
The Supercharger Map currently shows Tesla sites only (10,500+ worldwide). Coming next is a unified "All Networks" map layer that pulls in:
