UK charge point service Zapmap has started mapping charge points in mainland Europe.

EV drivers travelling to the European continent can use the firm’s app to find charge points in France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. The charge points have a power rating of 60kW.

The company also has plans to add charge points to its maps in further European countries, such as Spain, Switzerland, Austria and Italy.

Alex Earl, Commercial Director at Zapmap, said: “I’m delighted to announce that we’ve taken our first step into mainland Europe. Mapping charge points on the continent has been a frequent request from Zapmap users over the past few years, and I’m very pleased to say that we’ve made it happen.”

Melanie Shufflebotham, Co-founder &  COO at Zapmap, said: “I’m very pleased we’re now able to serve UK drivers in these five countries, and that we can open up mainland Europe to a new generation of electric car drivers.

Zapmap says it has plans to deepen its coverage in mainland Europe.

In 2024, the EV charging firm is planning to display more types of charge point and more charging networks in more European countries.
