EV Chargers — EV charging stations worldwide

Tools / EV Chargers

Find Chargers

Find EV charging stations near a location. Returns stations with connector types, power levels, network, address, distance, and availability status. Supports filtering by connector, speed, network, and access type.

Returns: List of nearby EV charging stations with connector types, power levels, network, distance, and status

Parameters

latitude *numberLatitude of the search center

longitude *numberLongitude of the search center

radius_kmnumberSearch radius in kilometres (default: 10, max: 100)

connector_typestringFilter by connector type

charging_levelstringFilter by charging speed: level1 (slow AC), level2 (standard AC), dc_fast (rapid DC), any

networkstringFilter by charging network name (e.g. Tesla, ChargePoint, EVgo, Blink, Pod Point, BP Pulse)

access_typestringFilter by access: public, private, any (default: public)

min_power_kwnumberMinimum charger power output in kW (e.g. 50 for fast chargers, 150 for ultra-rapid)

limitnumberMaximum stations to return (default: 20, max: 100)

Example

Find chargers near central London

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOOLROUTER_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
  "tool": "ev-chargers",
  "skill": "find_chargers",
  "input": {
    "latitude": 51.5074,
    "longitude": -0.1278
  }
}' \

Charger Details

Get full details for a specific charging station by ID. Returns all connections with power and connector info, operator details, usage cost, and availability status.

Returns: Full station details including all connectors, power levels, operator, address, pricing, and status

Parameters

station_id *stringStation ID from a find_chargers or route_chargers result. Prefix with source — e.g. "ocm:12345" or "nrel:67890"

Example

Get details for an OCM station

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOOLROUTER_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
  "tool": "ev-chargers",
  "skill": "charger_details",
  "input": {
    "station_id": "ocm:123456"
  }
}' \

Route Chargers

Find EV charging stations along a driving route between two points. Ideal for road trip planning. Returns chargers near the route sorted by distance from start. US routes use the NREL route API; international routes sample waypoints along the path.

Returns: EV chargers along the driving route with distance from route, connector types, and power levels

Parameters

start_latitude *numberStarting point latitude

start_longitude *numberStarting point longitude

end_latitude *numberDestination latitude

end_longitude *numberDestination longitude

route_distance_kmnumberMaximum distance from route in km to search for stations (default: 5, max: 25)

connector_typestringFilter by connector type

charging_levelstringFilter by charging speed: level2, dc_fast, any

limitnumberMaximum stations to return (default: 20, max: 50)

Example

Find chargers on a road trip from LA to San Francisco

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOOLROUTER_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
  "tool": "ev-chargers",
  "skill": "route_chargers",
  "input": {
    "start_latitude": 34.0522,
    "start_longitude": -118.2437,
    "end_latitude": 37.7749,
    "end_longitude": -122.4194
  }
}' \

Network Stats

Get statistics about EV charging networks in a country or region. Shows station counts per network, connector type breakdown, and fast vs slow charger ratios.

Returns: Network breakdown with station counts, connector types, and charging speed distribution for the country

Parameters

country_code *stringISO 2-letter country code (e.g. US, GB, DE, FR, NL, NO). Use "US" for NREL data.

networkstringFilter to a specific network name for detailed breakdown (e.g. "Tesla", "ChargePoint")

Example

EV network stats for the US

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOOLROUTER_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
  "tool": "ev-chargers",
  "skill": "network_stats",
  "input": {
    "country_code": "US"
  }
}' \

Country Stats

Get a high-level summary of EV charging infrastructure in a country. Total stations, connector type distribution, fast vs slow ratio, top networks, and growth indicators.

Returns: National EV infrastructure summary with total stations, connectors, top networks, and speed distribution

Parameters

country_code *stringISO 2-letter country code (e.g. US, GB, DE, FR, NL, NO, CN, JP, AU)

Example

EV infrastructure in the United States

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOOLROUTER_API_KEY" \

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I find chargers near a point or along a route?

Yes. `find_chargers` searches near coordinates, and `route_chargers` finds stations along a road trip between two points.

Can I filter by connector type or charging speed?

Yes. The search tools support connector filters, charging level, power, network, and access type so you can narrow to the chargers you can actually use.

Can I check one station before I drive there?

`charger_details` returns the full station record, including connectors, power, operator, address, pricing, and availability.

Can it compare charging infrastructure by country?

Yes. `network_stats` and `country_stats` summarize station counts, connector mix, and fast-versus-slow ratios for a country or region.
