How to have new chargers added to ABRP
This has changed a bit over the years as A Better Routeplanner has evolved. Basically, as we want to cover as many charging locations around the world as possible, we use a mix of data sources. Chargers can be added to the data sources, which we then import from. In this article, we describe different ways to get new chargers published in A Better Routeplanner.

Making additions to external data sources
OCM - openchargemap.org
Users can add locations to OSM, and once approved, they’ll appear in ABRP within a day or two. This is useful, especially for non-networked charging locations.
GE - GoingElectric.de
We do fetch chargers from this source as well, but as the page is only in German we recommend adding locations to OCM first.
💡 Tip! If a location in ABRP is fetched from any of the above open-source websites - we’ll display an ‘edit in…’ button at the bottom of the charger details page. Click it, and you’ll be taken directly to make updates to the location in the data source.
