Tool: Python with matplotlib. Data source: typical pay-as-you-go DC fast-charging tariffs per country from the Public EV Charging Price Index we maintain at carsmultiverse.com/public-ev-charging-price-index. Each country row on that page lists the specific operator tariff used and its date, since prices change often. Local prices converted to USD. Notes: these are standard pay-as-you-go rates for a DC fast session, not subscription rates and not home charging.

I think it’s overpriced in Germany. To see that we are in the lower half astonishes me.

Allego is one of the more expensive in Denmark, I don’t think you should be using them as your source.
0.66€ is the highest price in France. For very fast charging on highways. Basic price is 0.16€/kWh.

Canada must have different rates depending on where you are in the country. Some provinces like British Columbia, Quebec, and Manitoba have very cheap electricity because of a good supply of hydro electric power, while other provinces like Alberta and Saskatchewan are more expensive and rely much more on fossil fuels.
Also wondering if this takes account for taxes as normally taxes are added on after in North America whereas in Europe the price you see already has tax applied.

I drive a lot (mainly between Italy and The Netherlands).
A simple €5/month subscription to Ionity saves me at least 35% on fast charging.
If you use fast charging only once a month, it makes sense to have a fast charging subscription. (Not necessarily Ionity, that one just makes sense for me, since my route has a lot of Ionity chargers)

In the Netherlands almost no one pays the full rate – zillion of subscriptions/apps with lower prices

This is a better guide to prices in Denmark.

Edit.
Found [this map](https://evchargingstations.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/14-Q4-2025-Average-Pricing-at-All-Stations-by-Province-Canada.png) on [this source](https://evchargingstations.com/chargingnews/canadian-dc-fast-charging/) and it seems to check out that some provinces are indeed cheaper than others. Cheapest is Quebec at 0.38 CAD (0.27 USD) per kwh and most expensive is Alberta/Sask at 0.65 CAD (0.46 USD) per kwh.
