DeKalb, Illinois is served by 16 public electric vehicle charging locations operating 33 individual chargers — an average of 2.1 chargers per site. Of those locations, 1 (6%) offer DC fast charging suitable for road-trip stops and short-dwell sessions, while 15 (94%) provide Level 2 charging for longer dwell times such as workplace, retail and overnight parking.
The largest charging network in DeKalb is ChargePoint Network with 13 locations, followed by Tesla Destination with 1. Average DC fast power across the city is approximately 60 kW, which puts most fast-charging stalls in the modern 150 kW–350 kW class capable of delivering a meaningful state-of-charge top-up in 15–30 minutes for a typical EV.
EV Data Map is an EVSE and DC Fast Charger location analyzer that scores every potential charging site in the United States from 0 to 100 for DC Fast Charger ROI, combining EV ownership density, daytime population, traffic, demographics, nearby competing chargers, dwell-time characteristics of surrounding land use, and grid capacity. Use the analyzer below to enter any address in DeKalb and receive an instant ROI score, demand projection, and recommended charger configuration.
In DeKalb, Illinois, the public EV charging landscape is largely shaped by the ChargePoint Network, which commands an impressive 81% of the 16 available charging locations. This reliance on a single operator can influence network reliability and pricing dynamics for any new site developers. With just 6% of these locations offering DC fast charging—averaging a modest 60 kW—there is a clear opportunity for emerging infrastructure to meet growing demand, especially with a lack of higher-capacity stations. Potential entrants should consider that while Level 2 chargers serve longer-dwell needs, the absence of fast-charging options above 60 kW could be a pivotal factor in attracting EV drivers, especially when compared to neighboring cities with more robust offerings.
DC fast share: 6% of locations. Level 2 share: 94%. Average chargers per site: 2.1. Average DC fast power: 60 kW.

Other cities in Illinois we cover with full charging data and site profitability scoring — useful for comparing footprints across the state.
Every score on EV Data Map blends location demand, competition and operating economics into a single 0–100 number. Demand is modeled from registered EV count, commute and through-traffic patterns, daytime worker population, retail and hospitality footprint, and tourism inflows. Competition uses the count and quality of nearby existing chargers — including DC fast power, network reliability and dwell-fit. Operating economics include estimated electricity tariffs, demand-charge exposure, expected utilization, and capital cost for the recommended hardware mix.
For DeKalb specifically, our model accounts for local commute corridors, nearby interstate and US-highway traffic, the existing footprint of 1 DC fast and 15 Level 2 sites, and the typical dwell profile of the surrounding land use. The result is a per-address score plus a recommended configuration — number of stalls, target power level and network — that maximises projected revenue.
