What is Type 2?
The plug, the current, the carType 2 is the AC plug on almost every electric car sold outside North America. At public stations it is usually an AC charger, and at a caravan park or motel it may be the socket you plug your own cable into.
The plug sets the shape of the connection, not the speed: a Type 2 post can be a 3.7 kW kerbside unit or a 22 kW car-park charger, and the car's onboard charger caps what it accepts. Most public Type 2 sites in this directory sit in the 7–22 kW band and suit a stop of an hour or more.
Type 2 carries three-phase AC, so the same connector appears on 7 kW single-phase and 22 kW three-phase equipment. Whether a given station delivers the higher figure depends on its supply and the car, and the station page reports the site's peak rather than a claim about your vehicle.
What the label means
Type 2 is an AC connector. DC fast charging on these cars uses CCS2 or CHAdeMO, and a Type 2 socket will not accept a CCS2 plug.

Type 2 stations by place type
Counts are stations that list Type 2, not plugs. One station can carry several connector types, so a station can appear here and in another connector's count. Prices are the networks' own per-kWh tariffs and can change by time of day. Counts from the directory data of October 2026.
