Since we are on Hacker News, let me promote the startup that built this and provides the realtime chargepoint data: Eco-Movement[1]. They have expanded out of the Netherlands and now provide this data europe-wide[2]. I think this is a good illustration how forward thinking government policies (incentivise electric car use) can drive new business in a country or state.
