Electrify America

Electrify America is the largest open EV fast-charging network in the United States, operating more than 5,600 DC fast chargers at over 1,080 locations across the US and Canada. Subsidiary of Volkswagen Group of America, the network offers charging speeds up to 350 kW and supports CCS, CHAdeMO, and NACS connectors. Electrify America provides REST APIs through a partner developer portal that enables automotive OEMs and enterprise integrators to locate charging stations, check real-time charger availability, retrieve session pricing, and manage charging sessions. Authentication is handled via OAuth2 / Auth0. A consumer-facing mobile app (iOS/Android) provides pass-based subscription plans (Pass and Pass+) with per-kWh pricing, and the Plug&Charge standard (ISO 15118) is supported at all stations for certificate-based auto-authentication.

Electrify America publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Electric Vehicles, EV Charging, Charging Stations, DC Fast Charging, and Plug and Charge.

Electrify America’s developer surface includes developer portal, signup flow, pricing, FAQ, and 12 more developer resources.
