Spain’s REVE map tracks more than 44,700 public charging points in real time, giving electric-car drivers live information to plan long trips. It shows where stations are and whether they are available, with prices listed too, although drivers should still check with operators before setting off.
Built by Red Eléctrica and backed by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO), REVE pairs each station’s location with its operating status, while also showing the cost. That information is particularly useful at high-speed chargers, where stations can fill up quickly and downtime can disrupt travel. The Spanish government says the map launched on September 14, 2026, as part of the Estructura de Acción Nacional. Drivers can check availability and prices in real time for nearly 44,700 charging points across Spain. The rollout also brought new road signs to help drivers find charging stations along national roads.
Recent independent reviews put the number of high-power charging points (≥150 kW) in Spain at approximately 3,964. Stations marked as out of order or blocked are excluded from REVE’s live availability counts.
To use REVE, enter a destination or town, or map a route, to see nearby public charging options. Each listing shows the power and connector type, along with opening hours and any special access rules. Chargers vary: some are suited to quick stops, while others are intended for longer sessions. Prices are displayed, but the final cost depends on the operator, payment method and current tariff. MITECO and several industry reports describe REVE as the basic national tool for showing charger locations and real-time status. This information is especially useful on long journeys and when choosing between standard and fast charging.
Spain’s public charging network is expanding. The latest official count is 42,318 public access points, with a total nominal power of 2,269,170 kilowatts. MITECO says this exceeds the minimum power required under European rules for Spain’s fleet of electrified light vehicles. The challenge is to distribute chargers effectively and increase capacity along major highways, as set out in the National Action Structure for alternative fuels and the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan, which aims for 5.5 million electrified vehicles by 2030. Independent reviews using REVE and MITECO data show broader coverage: between 44,390 and 44,700 points. They also count about 49,391 connectors, while 13,726 locations were recorded as of early September 2026. The figures differ because sources count “points,” “connectors” and “locations” in different ways, affecting how drivers interpret the statistics.
Even with a map, a charger may not be free when a driver arrives. A spot that appears available on REVE could be occupied or out of order by then. Drivers should check the operator’s app or website before setting off, particularly on long trips, where a problem could cost hours. Teams encountered charging problems during the recent Repsol EcoRallye in Galicia, as reported earlier.
Alongside REVE’s launch, MITECO opened a public consultation on a new package of charging-infrastructure measures. It includes a €150 million support program and new requirements for installing chargers at parking lots and fuel stations. Depending on the document, the consultations are open until late September or early October 2026.
Spain’s electric mobility network is approaching a basic test: REVE gives drivers a practical way to plan trips as the network expands and real-time planning tools improve. Its development will depend on charger locations and the power they deliver, as well as whether they work.
