EV charging costs vary significantly by country and charging type. The difference between home electricity and public DC fast charging can be 3–5×: from €0.07/kWh at home in Bulgaria to €0.79/kWh at IONITY fast chargers in Germany.
Home electricity in the EU ranges from €0.07/kWh (Bulgaria, Hungary) to €0.35/kWh (Germany, Denmark). Public AC charging (7–22 kW) costs €0.30–0.50/kWh. DC fast chargers (50–350 kW) from IONITY, Allego and Fastned cost €0.50–0.79/kWh. For long trips, charging overnight at home or in countries with cheap electricity is significantly more economical.
Home electricity is the most economical way to charge your EV — typically 3–5× cheaper than public AC and 5–8× cheaper than DC fast charging. AC chargers (Type 2) suit overnight charging or long stops — 6–10 hours for a full charge. DC fast chargers (CCS/CHAdeMO) charge to 80% in 20–40 minutes but cost considerably more.
Home electricity prices are sourced from Eurostat (nrg_pc_204) — official EU statistics for residential consumers. Public charging tariffs for IONITY, Allego and Fastned are updated from operators' current price lists. Data is updated weekly.
This tool is useful for EV owners planning trips across Europe who want to estimate charging costs in advance. It helps you route through countries with cheaper electricity, balance charging speed against cost, and compare real running costs for electric vehicles across different countries.
Home electricity data is updated weekly based on Eurostat statistics. IONITY, Allego and Fastned tariffs are updated when operators change their price lists.
AC (alternating current) is slow charging at 7–22 kW — 6–10 hours for a full charge, suitable for overnight charging or long stops. DC (direct current) is fast charging at 50–350 kW — charges to 80% in 20–40 minutes but costs 1.5–2× more than AC.
Public charging includes the cost of equipment, site rental, maintenance and operator profit. Home electricity is just the kWh tariff with no added markups. A full charge of a 60 kWh battery at home costs €4–15, while a DC fast charge costs €25–50.
For home electricity, the cheapest countries are Bulgaria, Hungary, Serbia and Kazakhstan (from €0.07/kWh). In Western Europe prices are higher: Germany, Netherlands, Denmark — €0.30–0.38/kWh. Public charging is cheapest in Norway and Sweden despite high household electricity prices — operators compete aggressively on charging tariffs.
Cost depends on battery capacity and charging type. For a typical EV with a 60 kWh battery: at home in Bulgaria — around €4–5, in Germany — €18–20. At a public AC charger in Europe — €18–25. At an IONITY DC fast charger — €35–50.
Use apps like ABRP (A Better Route Planner), PlugShare or Chargemap — they show charging stations across Europe with prices and reviews. IONITY, Allego and Fastned have their own network maps. Tesla Superchargers are primarily for Tesla vehicles, though some stations are now open to other brands.

The University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein (UKSH) has introduced a converted motorhome for blood collection. The mobile unit will visit companies, schools, and other organizations.

A 71-year-old woman in Texas died from primary amebic meningoencephalitis caused by Naegleria fowleri after rinsing her nose with unboiled tap water from a motorhome tank. According to the CDC, infection occurred over four days before symptoms appeared, despite no recreational freshwater exposure. Although the amoeba was not detected in water samples from the motorhome or campsite, disinfectant levels were insufficient and turbidity exceeded standards. The case highlights risks of using tap water for nasal irrigation and the need for water quality maintenance in RVs.
