EV charging across Sweden — one app from the Øresund Bridge to Lapland

One app. One account. Thousands of charging points across Sweden.

Sweden is further than it looks, and longer. From Calais, Malmö is about 1,250 km through Germany and Denmark and over the Øresund Bridge, Stockholm another 600 km on, and Lapland two days’ driving beyond that. The charging keeps pace — around 60,000 public charge points, one in six of them 150 kW or faster — and the roads are free: no vignette and no motorway tolls, just the bridge on the way in and the congestion-tax cameras in Stockholm and Gothenburg. easyCharging helps UK EV drivers use it all without learning a new system, with every price in kronor before you plug in.

From the Øresund Bridge to Lapland, one way to charge

Whether you’re rolling off the Øresund Bridge into Skåne or plugging in at a hotel in Dalarna, easyCharging works exactly as it does at home — one app, a price you see before you plug in, and charging you can rely on.

Charge where you need it most

Sweden’s public network has passed 60,000 charge points — Type 2 posts at the kerb, in town car parks, at supermarkets, hotels and ski resorts — and about six in ten of them are in the three counties around Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, which is where most journeys start. easyCharging helps you find the right one without juggling Swedish apps.

Spend less time charging, more time travelling

Access fast and ultra-fast DC chargers along the E4, E6, E18 and E20 — more than 10,000 public points in Sweden now deliver 150 kW or more. Ideal for the long runs between Malmö, Gothenburg and Stockholm, and on up the coast to the High Coast.

Know what’s available before you arrive

See live availability, power levels and pricing in the app. Plan ahead where it counts: around Stockholm, which has the fewest public points per electric car of any Swedish county, and in the inland north, where the road authority says fast chargers are still thin.

Charging your EV in Sweden — step by step

Open the app and plan ahead

Before or during your journey, open the easyCharging app to find charging points across Sweden — from motorway hubs to town-centre posts, hotels and ski resorts. Check power, pricing and live availability before you arrive; in the north, find the next stop before you leave the last one.

Park and start your session

Park at the charging bay and plug in — Swedish AC posts are Type 2 sockets rather than tethered cables, so keep your own cable in the boot. A bay signed Laddplats is for cars that can plug in, and the time limit on the sign still applies. Start the session in the easyCharging app, or tap your RFID key tag on the reader if mobile signal is weak.

Charge while you take a break

At a fast charger on the E4 or E6, a stop is long enough for a coffee and a kanelbulle. In towns, an AC post suits lunch or an overnight stay — but parking around it is usually paid, by app or card, as on any other bay. In winter, setting the charger as your navigation destination lets many cars warm the battery on the way, so it charges faster when you arrive. You can monitor progress live in the app.

Unplug and continue your journey

Stop charging in the app, unplug and continue your journey. Payment is handled automatically and you’ll receive a receipt instantly — no subscriptions, no monthly invoices.

Charge anywhere in Sweden

easyCharging gives you access to AC, fast and ultra-fast chargers across Sweden — along the E-roads, in cities, at hotels, supermarkets and ski resorts — as part of a network of 900,000+ charging points across Europe.

View all charging points in the easyCharging app and filter by connector, charging speed and availability — including rapid DC chargers along the E4, E6, E18 and E20.

Find the right charger instantly while travelling.

Cities with strong coverage: Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö — their three counties hold about six in ten of Sweden’s public charge points.

No new app at every border crossing

Many UK EV drivers discover that charging in Sweden often means downloading new local apps, setting up new accounts and paying in kronor through each of them — and the same again in Germany and Denmark on the way up. easyCharging lets you charge across Sweden using the same app and account you already use at home.

Popular EV routes across Sweden — and the way in through Germany and Denmark

From the Øresund Bridge to Stockholm and on up the Baltic coast, these are the routes UK EV drivers travel most in Sweden — and where easyCharging helps keep journeys simple and predictable.

Calais → Hamburg → Rødby → Copenhagen → Malmö (A1 / E47 / E20)

The direct road from the Channel: across the Low Countries and northern Germany to Hamburg, the 45-minute ferry from Puttgarden to Rødby, Zealand to Copenhagen and over the Øresund Bridge into Malmö — about 1,250 km from Calais. The bridge is 690 kronor one way for a car at the toll station (€65, by card, or cash in Swedish or Danish kroner), less with an online ticket bought ahead, and there is no discount for being electric. Rather not take the ferry? The all-road route through Jutland adds the Great Belt Bridge (235 Danish kroner) and about 135 km. easyCharging shows chargers live in all four countries, so the last German stop and the first Swedish one are planned together.

Kiel → Gothenburg by overnight ferry

The way to skip Denmark: Stena Line’s overnight ferry from Kiel reaches Gothenburg about fourteen hours later, so you drive off rested on the west coast with Stockholm under six hours up the E20. There is no charging on board, so board with enough charge for the first Swedish leg — the app shows the hubs around Gothenburg before you sail.

Malmö → Jönköping → Stockholm (E6 / E4)

The spine of the south: up the E6 to Helsingborg, then the E4 through the forests of Småland, along Lake Vättern at Jönköping and on through Linköping and Norrköping — about 610 km and seven hours’ driving. Fast charging sits at the service areas and retail parks the whole way, and easyCharging shows live availability at each stop.

Malmö → Gothenburg → Oslo (E6)

Up the west coast: Halmstad and the beaches of Halland to Gothenburg in about three hours, then the granite coast of Bohuslän to the Norwegian border at Svinesund — its bridge has been toll-free since 2021 — and Oslo about three and a half hours beyond Gothenburg. Gothenburg’s county has more 150 kW points than any other in Sweden, so top up there before the coast road.

Gothenburg → Stockholm (E20)

Across the middle of the country, between Lakes Vänern and Vättern to Örebro and along Lake Mälaren to Stockholm — about 470 km and under six hours. Both cities charge a congestion tax on weekdays, electric or not — up to 60 kronor a day in Gothenburg, 135 in Stockholm — and bill a UK plate by post, so charge at the hubs along the E20 rather than detour into the centres for it. easyCharging shows their live prices side by side.

Stockholm → Uppsala → Sundsvall → the High Coast (E4)

North up the Baltic coast: Uppsala in an hour, then Gävle and Sundsvall — whose E4 bridge charges 9 kronor a crossing, read from your plate and billed by post — and the High Coast Bridge about 450 km from Stockholm. Fast charging keeps up along the coast; beyond Umeå the E4, and the inland roads, are where Sweden still has gaps between fast chargers, so charge at every good opportunity and check the next stop in the app before you leave the last.

Questions about EV charging and driving in Sweden?

Answers to the most common questions from UK electric vehicle drivers — covering charging, payments, congestion taxes, winter driving and travelling to Sweden.

Charging

Can I use easyCharging on Swedish motorways and main roads?

Yes. easyCharging shows charging points along Sweden’s main roads, including fast and ultra-fast chargers on the E4, E6, E18 and E20. The EU’s rules for fast charging at regular intervals on the main road network were about 95% met in Sweden in 2025; the stretches still missing are in the far north.

How fast are EV chargers in Sweden?

Sweden has around 60,000 public charge points. Most are AC posts of up to 22 kW — at the kerb, in town car parks and at hotels, suited to a few hours or overnight — and roughly one in six deliver 150 kW or more, at motorway hubs and on the edges of cities. Actual speed depends on your vehicle and battery state and, in winter, on battery temperature: a cold battery charges more slowly, so let the car warm it on the way if it can.

Do I need a subscription to charge in Sweden?

No. easyCharging has no subscription fees and nothing to load in advance. You only pay for the charging sessions you actually use — in Sweden and across Europe.

How much does charging cost in Sweden?

Prices are set per network and per station, and the app shows each one before you plug in. In September 2026 it showed 9.74 kronor per kWh at a 100 kW charger in Stockholm, plus 1.41 kronor a minute after the first hour, and 8.94 kronor per kWh at a 400 kW hub on the E14 at Bräcke. A time charge like that one starts once a session passes a set time, so read the whole price card before you start.

How do payments work when charging in Sweden?

Payments are billed instantly after each charging session and you receive a receipt in the app. Sweden is close to cashless — only about one shop purchase in twenty is paid in cash — so parking, bridges and ferries take cards or apps, and chargers take an app, a charge tag or, at the newest fast chargers, a card. Prices are in kronor; your bank converts them.

Does easyCharging work with UK electric cars?

Yes. easyCharging supports all major EV brands and the connector types used by UK vehicles, including CCS and Type 2. Swedish AC posts are Type 2 sockets rather than tethered cables, so bring your own cable. CHAdeMO is rare in Sweden, at under a thousand connectors nationwide.

Can I tap to pay at chargers across Sweden?

Under EU rules, every public charger must let you pay without a contract, chargers installed since April 2024 must take a common payment method, and from 1 January 2027 every fast charger of 50 kW or more on the main road network must take bank cards, older ones included. Many AC posts still work only through an app or a charge tag. Using easyCharging gives consistent access and a clear price across operators.

Is there enough charging in Swedish cities and in the north?

Yes, with one caveat. The network is densest around Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, and fast charging lines the main roads of the south and the Baltic coast. The inland north is thinner, and Sweden names parts of the E10 between Luleå and Kiruna and the E4 north of Umeå as stretches still short of fast chargers at the EU’s intervals — so plan each stop in the app, arrive with more charge than you would at home, and allow for the cold in winter.
