EV Charging Stations from San Francisco to Portland

1362 charging locations are mapped within 9 mi of the 636 mi drive from San Francisco, California to Portland, Oregon. Each charger is listed with its connectors, its rated output where we hold one, and how far along the route it sits.

How many charging stops you need, San Francisco to Portland

Stops are the number of times a car must add range to cover 636 mi, assuming 70% of rated range is usable between stops (the buffer that highway speeds, load and arrival reserve actually take). Formula: stops = ceil(636 / usable range) − 1.

Frequently asked questions

How many EV charging stations are there between San Francisco and Portland?
Zevvy has 1362 charging locations mapped within 9 mi of the 636 mi route. 355 locations have DC fast charging; the rest are AC or not recorded.
Can I drive from San Francisco to Portland in an EV?
Yes, on the chargers we have mapped. The longest stretch without a DC fast charger inside the 9 mi corridor is 35 mi, so a car that can cover that between stops can make the trip. Across the 150-300 mi range bands below, that works out at 3 to 6 charging stops.
What charging connectors are available on the San Francisco to Portland route?
J1772 (Type 1) at 1018 locations, CCS1 at 264 locations, NACS (Tesla) at 194 locations, CHAdeMO at 137 locations, Type 2 AC at 3 locations and CCS2 at 1 location. Each location is counted once per connector type it offers.
Where is the longest gap without a fast charger on the San Francisco to Portland drive?
It is the 35 mi stretch after ChargePoint Charging Station, before Tesla Supercharger. Charge to cover at least that distance before entering it.
Which charging networks operate on the San Francisco to Portland route?
OpConnect (36 locations), ChargePoint (23 locations), Tesla (including non-tesla) (7 locations), Blink Charging (4 locations), IONNA (4 locations) and Electrify America (3 locations), plus 8 smaller operators. The remaining 1271 locations have no operator recorded in our dataset.
How long does the San Francisco to Portland drive take?
The routing engine puts the 636 mi drive at 10 hr 30 min of driving time, before any charging. Add the time for the charging stops your car needs from the table above.
