EV charging in County Kerry: 40 public chargers, by network and how you pay
The whole of County Kerry, the Ring of Kerry and the Dingle Peninsula included. OpenStreetMap has 40 public charging locations here, from 11 networks and operators. ESB ecars has the most, 19, then EZO (formerly EasyGo) with 4. By nearest town, the most are around Killarney (12), Tralee (11) and Kenmare (5). 11 are fast chargers of 50 kW and up, 6 of them 150 kW and up. Each network has its own app or card, many chargers also take contactless, and one app, EZO's, starts ESB and Ionity chargers as well as its own.

"Contactless listed" counts the chargers OpenStreetMap says take a bank card; many more may. "How you pay" is each network's own wording, from the charging cards guide, which has the detail and the sources.

Free charging in County Kerry
7 of the 40 are marked free on OpenStreetMap, 3 of them for customers only, and none of them on ESB, EZO or the other networks that charge for every session. Those tags aren't dated, so check before you rely on one. Where charging is still free in Ireland.
What this page can't tell you
Which of these you can use. That depends on the networks you have an account with, your car's plugs and whether you pay by contactless, which is what ChargingSpots works out on your phone: every charger marked compatible, incompatible or not sure, and why.
Whether a charger is free right now. Ireland's networks don't publish that openly yet, so neither this page nor the app can say.
Every charger in County Kerry. OpenStreetMap is mapped by volunteers, so a new charger can take a while to appear, and some sites with several chargers are mapped as one. The networks' own apps show their own chargers only. 16 of the 40 here have no tag saying how you pay, which is where the app says "not sure"; anyone can add one on OpenStreetMap.
