Alternative Fuel Station Map: EV Charging, Hydrogen, Propane and More

In short: find every public alternative fuel station in the United States on the official U.S. Department of Energy map: EV charging, hydrogen, propane, natural gas (CNG and LNG), E85 ethanol, biodiesel and renewable diesel. Enter an address, city or ZIP, choose your fuel in the menu, and open any station for hours, access and directions.

Which fuel is which?

Use the fuel menu on the map to show one type at a time. Here is what each one is for:

Electricity (EV charging)Battery-electric cars and plug-in hybrids charge at Level 2 stations (hours, at work, shops and hotels) or DC fast chargers (well under an hour on road trips). Most drivers charge mostly at home.EV charging map →
HydrogenFuel cell electric vehicles fill up with compressed hydrogen in a few minutes, much like gasoline. Retail stations are few and mostly in California, so check that a station is open before you rely on it.Hydrogen station map →
Propane (autogas)Propane powers fleets, school buses, shuttles and some pickups and work trucks, often converted to run on it. Many stations are private fleet sites, so check access before you go.Propane station map →
Natural gas (CNG and LNG)Compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel buses, refuse trucks and heavy trucks. LNG is mostly for long-haul trucks; CNG stations serve fleets and some public vehicles.CNG station map →
Liquefied natural gas (LNG)LNG is natural gas cooled to a liquid for long-haul and heavy trucks. Only a couple of dozen public stations exist, mostly in California and Texas.LNG station map →
Ethanol (E85)E85 is a high-ethanol blend for flexible-fuel vehicles (FFVs) only; your owner's manual or fuel cap says whether your car is one. Regular gasoline cars should not use E85.E85 station map →
BiodieselBiodiesel is a renewable fuel made from vegetable oils, animal fats or used cooking oil, usually sold blended with diesel (for example B20, 20% biodiesel). Check which blends your diesel engine's maker allows.Biodiesel station map →
Renewable dieselRenewable diesel is made from similar fats and oils but is chemically like petroleum diesel, so it can be used in diesel engines without blending limits. It is sold mostly in California and some West Coast states.Renewable diesel station map →

Before you drive to a station

  • Check access: some stations are open to the public, others only to fleets or members. The station details say which.
  • Check hours and status: the map shows what station owners report. Call ahead or check the network app, especially for hydrogen and long trips.
  • Check your vehicle: E85 is only for flexible-fuel vehicles, and biodiesel blends above what your engine maker allows can void a warranty.

Powering your home instead?

Charging an EV at home is usually the cheapest way to fuel it. See what it would cost with our EV charging cost calculator, read about installing a home charger, or explore every type of energy.
