I searched the forum base but it doesn't look like this mapper got mentioned yet:

. https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/electricity_locations.html#/find/nearest?fuel=ELEC

I just started to poke at this, and it looks fairly straightforward and comprehensive,
with typical filter options. The "about the data" blurb claims daily updates directly from
the major charging networks. They *don't* seem to include the dinky 25 kW CCS units
at car dealers and Harley shops, which is fine because they're slow and often unavailable.

The in-browser version needs javascript on [what locator doesn't??] and allowed
backend interaction with "maptiler.com", and mobile apps seem to be available
albeit only through the usual stores.

Just checked our area, and seems to be missing quite a few. I set it to look at ALL but still not picking up some of the newer ones that came online.
 
There's a "submit new station" button; go for it. Do the other locators have
them yet either? Also consider that NREL is a US agency and their Canada
interaction may be a bit more token.

Yeah, plugshare shows both newer ones and coming soon stations that don't show up on this one.
