Find the nearest electric vehicle charging station via the Shell Recharge Network
The Shell Recharge Network makes planning your electric vehicle rental journey simple, helping you locate public charging stations nearby and during your drive.
The network gives you access to 500,000+ public charging points across Europe and beyond. The map shows near real-time availability at each charging post plus the price, the charger and connection types and the speeds available.*
*7kW or 22kW chargers will take around 3-4 hours to fully charge; these can usually be found in car parks, supermarkets and leisure centres. 50kW DC chargers can typically charge from 0-80% in approximately 30 minutes, and the 150kW ultra rapid chargers located at Shell forecourts can deliver power up to three times faster than that. Timings are dependent on vehicle make and model.
