How many public EV chargers are there in Denmark?
Tens of thousands of public charging points.
Short answer
At the end of 2024 Denmark had 30,439 publicly accessible charging points for electric vehicles. Of these, 20,291 were normal chargers of up to 22 kW, 6,149 were fast chargers of 23–99 kW and 3,999 were high-power chargers of more than 99 kW. At the same time there were 356,451 fully electric cars and vans. The number of electric cars has grown fast since then, to 718,300 passenger cars at the end of September 2026.
Why
- Most public points are normal chargers for parking.
- About one in eight points was a high-power charger.
- The network keeps growing with the number of cars.
Details

Tip
Use a normal charger when you park for hours, for example overnight, and save fast chargers for stops on the road.
What may differ
The count of charging points grows every quarter, so today the number is higher than at the end of 2024.
