Methodology
Counts include active station records only. Ports are the sum of reported Level 1, Level 2, and DC fast EVSE fields; DC fast totals include only reported DC fast ports. We do not estimate missing values or infer growth without a prior comparable snapshot. The source row update watermark is 2026-09-07.

Primary source: the US Department of Energy Alternative Fuels Data Center Station Locator (NREL). ChargingNear.me normalizes that source into active station records and may retain additional source identifiers. For a citation, link to this report, name the snapshot date shown above, and quote the table’s measure rather than presenting it as a historical trend.
