The National Chargepoint Register (NCR) is a database of publicly available chargepoints for electric vehicles in the UK established in 2011. The underlying dataset from the Office of Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) is continually updated by chargepoint networks, owners and controllers.

Note, we have restricted the coverage to overlap with UK Power Networks three licence areas of Eastern Power Networks, London Power Networks and South Eastern Power Networks.
