help Questions about public charging
How many public EV chargers are there in the UK?
FillRadar lists 23,076 charging sites with 51,392 chargers from the 17 networks whose open data it reads, including ubitricity, Connected Kerb, TotalEnergies and Clenergy EV. Networks that do not yet share their data are not counted, so the UK total is higher.
How much does it cost to charge an electric car in public?
Across the chargers on FillRadar, the typical price is 59p/kWh at rapid chargers and 56p/kWh at slower ones, including VAT. The cheapest rapid price listed is 27p/kWh at Baker Street Car Park (ChargePlace Scotland). Charging at home is usually cheaper.
What is the difference between rapid, fast and slow chargers?
Ultra-rapid chargers deliver 150 kW or more and rapid chargers 50 to 149 kW, both as DC through a CCS or CHAdeMO connector; they add most of a typical battery in 20 to 40 minutes. Fast chargers (7 to 49 kW) are usually AC Type 2 posts for an hour or more. Slow chargers, under 7 kW, suit overnight street charging. A car charges no faster than its own limit.
Where does the live availability come from?
From each operator's own open data feed, which UK law (the Public Charge Point Regulations 2023) requires them to publish. FillRadar stores a reading of every network about every half hour and shows it with the time it was read. A charger free then may be taken by the time you arrive.
Are the prices with VAT?
Yes. Prices are per kWh including VAT, from the operator's tariff data. Some networks charge less in their own app, or add a connection or overstay fee; where the feed says so, the page shows it.
