=VERVE("evchargingstations", "count")

EV Charging Stations finds electric vehicle charging stations within a radius of a point, a ZIP or postal code, or a city, across the US and Canada, sorted by distance. Each station returns its address, coordinates, distance, status, access, network, Level 1, Level 2 and DC fast port counts and connector types. Filter by connector, network, charging level or fast charging only. Paid plans add charging power in kW, pricing, access hours, phone, facility type and open dates.

It's one of 250+ live sources you reach with a single =VERVE() function — served from APIVerve's production data engine, billed at 1 credit per resolved cell, and refreshed on whatever cadence you set. No API keys to wrangle, no scripts, no exports.

A real example — the input you type, and the values you can pull from it. Click any cell to see the formula behind it.

One value per row

Fill =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count") down a column and EV Charging Stations returns a result for every row — a batch of live values in a single drag, no code.

Enrich data in place

Add EV Charging Stations beside a table you already have to append its output right where your data lives, then sort, filter, or chart on it.

Live or frozen

Keep the ev charging stations values as formulas that look up again when their inputs change, or fill them as plain values that never move.

The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.

Google SheetsAdd-on

Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.

=VERVE("evchargingstations", "count")
Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same source, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Excel namespaces it as VERVE.CALL. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE.CALL("evchargingstations", "count")

Tune the result by adding name=value before the field argument — in any order. Leave one out and its default applies.

  • lat

    Latitude of the search centre. Use lat and lon, a zip, or a city and state

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "lat", "37.7749")
  • lon

    Longitude of the search centre

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "lon", "-122.4194")
  • zip

    US ZIP code or Canadian postal code to search around

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "zip", "10001")
  • city

    City to search around, with state

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "city", "Toronto")
  • state

    Two-letter US state or Canadian province code, with city

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "state", "ON")
  • radius

    Search radius in kilometres, up to 80

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "radius", "10")
  • connector

    Only stations with one of these connectors, comma-separated: j1772, ccs, chademo, nacs, nema515, nema520, nema1450, mcs

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "connector", "ccs")
  • network

    Only stations on a network whose name contains this, for example Tesla, ChargePoint or Electrify America

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "network", "Tesla")
  • level

    Only stations with ports at this charging level

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "level", "2")
  • fastOnly

    Only stations with DC fast charging

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "fastOnly", "true")
  • access

    Public stations (default), private ones, or all

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "access", "public")
  • status

    Open stations (default), planned, temporarily unavailable, or all

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "status", "open")
  • limit

    Maximum number of stations to return, 1-100

    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "limit", "20")

Add a field name right after the inputs to land just that value in the cell.

  • Count
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count")
  • Returned
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "returned")
  • Search Center
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "searchCenter")
  • Search Center › Latitude
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "searchCenter.latitude")
  • Search Center › Longitude
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "searchCenter.longitude")
  • Search Center › Source
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "searchCenter.source")
  • Radius Km
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "radiusKm")
  • Stations
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "stations")
  • Stations › Name
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "stations.0.name")
  • Stations › Status
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "stations.0.status")
  • Stations › Access
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "stations.0.access")
  • Stations › Address
    =VERVE("evchargingstations", "stations.0.address")

EV Charging Stations, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull EV Charging Stations into Google Sheets?
Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in once with your key, and type =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count") into any cell. The argument after the inputs names the value you want back, so the cell resolves to a single number or string you can chart, sort, or feed into another formula.
What data can I pull from EV Charging Stations?
EV Charging Stations returns count, returned, searchCenter, searchCenter.latitude and searchCenter.longitude, plus 7 more — name any one of them after the inputs and that value lands in the cell. Leave the field out and the whole record spills into a two-column table instead.
Can I narrow what EV Charging Stations returns?
Yes — EV Charging Stations takes "lat", "lon", "zip" and "city", plus 9 more as optional inputs. They go in as "name", value pairs after the inputs and the field, in any order, so =VERVE("evchargingstations", "count", "lat", "37.7749") shapes the result without changing anything else.
Can I fill a whole column of EV Charging Stations at once?
Yes. Reference a range instead of a single cell and one call returns a value for every row, or drag =VERVE("evchargingstations") down like any spreadsheet function.
How many credits does each EV Charging Stations cell cost?
Each resolved cell costs 1 credit. A cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a sheet you aren't touching doesn't keep charging.
Does EV Charging Stations work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?
Yes — same arguments, same key, same fields. Excel namespaces custom functions, so the call is =VERVE.CALL() there and =VERVE() in Google Sheets; nothing else about it changes.
How current is EV Charging Stations?
It draws on 107k stations, served live from APIVerve's production data engine, and a cell looks up again whenever its inputs change.

Put EV Charging Stations in your next spreadsheet. Add the extension, paste the formula, and the cell keeps itself current.
