EV Charging in Luxembourg

Charging Networks

Luxembourg has 5+ major charging networks. The largest include Ionity, Shell Recharge, Tesla Supercharger.

Practical Tips

• Download the Chargy app. It is the national charging network and covers hundreds of charging points across Luxembourg.
• Chargy OK chargers are the fast DC version (50-320 kW), located at strategic points including motorway rest areas and Park and Ride lots.
• Many Park and Ride facilities near train stations have Chargy AC chargers, making them convenient for commuters.
• Luxembourg is small. You can reach any point in the country from the center in about 45 minutes, so one charge usually covers a full day of driving.
• Shell Recharge and Ionity chargers are also present along the A3, A6, and A13 motorways.

How to Pay

Chargy chargers accept the Chargy app, RFID cards from Chargy partners, and increasingly contactless bank cards at Chargy OK fast chargers. Roaming via Shell Recharge and Plugsurfing works at many locations. Ionity stations accept the Ionity app or roaming partners. Luxembourg uses the euro, so pricing is straightforward for eurozone visitors.

Charging Costs

Home charging is significantly cheaper than public DC fast charging in Luxembourg. If you have access to a home charger or workplace charging, use it for daily needs and save DC fast charging for road trips.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Do not over-plan charging stops. Luxembourg is so compact that one charge at a Chargy OK station covers most driving needs for the day.
• Do not skip the Chargy app thinking roaming alone will cover everything. Some Chargy AC chargers work best with the native app.
• Do not confuse Chargy (AC, slower) with Chargy OK (DC, fast). Check the charger type before planning a quick stop.
• Do not forget that fuel station habits do not apply. Most EV chargers are at Park and Ride lots, shopping areas, or rest stops, not traditional fuel stations.

Good to Know

• Public transport in Luxembourg is free for everyone, including trains and buses. This means fewer EV drivers in cities, and chargers in urban areas are often available.
• Luxembourg has no motorway tolls. Driving through the country is free.
• The country is trilingual (Luxembourgish, French, German). Charger screens typically offer French and German options.
• Luxembourg invests heavily in green energy. Much of the electricity powering chargers comes from renewable sources.
