EV charging 101

Drive and charge any EV without a home charger

You can still drive an EV and charge wherever life takes you, whether your apartment or condo has EV charging stations. The ChargePoint app means an affordable, fast and convenient station is never far away.

Level 1 charging

While you sleep

The Level 1 travel cable that came with your EV is a reliable choice for adding mileage overnight or at a moment’s notice on a road trip. Simply plug in your travel cable if an outlet is available or find nearby public AC chargers.

At work and around town

Level 2 AC charging is perfect for almost all EV charging scenarios. Adding up to 37 miles of range per hour, Level 2 charging will take care of business while you grocery shop, work at the office or stop for lunch on a road trip — you get the idea.

On the road

DC fast (Level 3) charging is an EV driver’s champion when in a hurry or on a long road trip. Get your EV to 80% fully charged in under 20 minutes. Remember that some older EVs are incompatible with DC fast charging and that fast charging is often more expensive than AC charging.

Charging locations consistently work well for me. The app makes is easy to initiate charging sessions, monitor remotely, pay for the service, and track activity history.

It’s the most user friendly ev station and I tried them all. Tap and charge. Easy layout and search function make this app a breeze…

Nice to have a charging network, and the plugs always fit my car. I especially love monitoring the status of my charge remotely in the app without having to go check on my vehicle.

The app is easy to use and very user friendly. Providing needed updates and locations for level 2 charging nationwide. My go to charge app after my Tesla...

Great app, don’t even need to have it open to start the charging session and has a map to help find other charging stations based on your vehicle. Went well above my expectations.
