Live network data

Give your users instant access to Europe‑wide charging information. Your app can display all Shell Recharge locations, plus roaming partner sites, available to Shell token holders and app users. This includes:

  • Static data: address, coordinates, operator, connector types, power levels.
  • Live data: real‑time EVSE status (Available / Occupied / Unavailable), updated timestamps, and accessibility.
  • Navigation value: users can quickly identify the nearest available and compatible location based on connector type, minimum power, or country filters.

This helps drivers reach the right charger faster and reduces time spent checking multiple apps.

Find your ideal charging station

Help users quickly choose the most suitable charging point by enriching station data with real‑time and contextual information. Using the EV Locations API, your app can surface the details that matter most when making a charging decision:

  • Live availability: show which connectors are free right now.
  • Connector types & power: highlight plug compatibility and charging speed to match user needs.
  • Estimated charging cost: display tariffs when available, including min/max price and cost components.
  • Amenities & services: inform drivers about useful onsite features like restrooms, food, or Wi‑Fi.
  • OCPI‑compliant data: ensure standardized, interoperable station information across networks.
  • User confidence: combine data points so drivers can select the best station without guesswork.

Integrate mapping into your app

Help users visualise nearby and route‑based charging options directly on an in‑app map. By integrating the EV Locations API, you can place Shell Recharge and roaming‑partner stations on an interactive map and enhance it with real‑time data.

Your app can:

  • Show stations on a map using coordinates returned by the API.
  • Cluster locations for cleaner map display when zoomed out.
  • Filter visually by availability, connector type, or power level.
  • Guide drivers to the nearest suitable charger through your own navigation flow.
  • Enhance the experience with markers, popups, and live updates as EVSE statuses change.

This enables you to build a smooth, intuitive charging‑finder experience—helping users see where they can charge and what to expect before they arrive.
