A charging station (also called an Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station or Charge Point) is a place where electric vehicles (EVs) can recharge their batteries. It works like a fuel station, but instead of gasoline or diesel, it provides electricity to power EVs. Apps like Google Maps, PlugShare, and Tesla Supercharger maps help locate nearby charging points.
