Key Findings
- •Countries with high EV adoption typically also show higher public charging density.
- •Small, high-income countries can rank high per capita even with modest absolute charger counts.
- •Low per-capita public charging density is common outside major EV markets, reflecting both lower EV uptake and limited reporting.

About This Statistic
This statistic measures how dense a country’s publicly accessible EV charging network is relative to its population, expressed as charging stations per 100,000 people. It provides a useful, comparable proxy for “EV charging availability” across countries with different sizes and populations.
The data come from the International Energy Agency (IEA) Global EV Data, which compiles national reports and market/industry sources to estimate the stock of publicly accessible charging stations. Differences in national definitions (e.g., whether a charging site vs. connector is counted) can affect comparability, but the metric is widely used for cross-country EV infrastructure benchmarking.
