At two sites in Kurdamir and Ganja, the same operator lists the same 120 kW rating and tariff. A driver with a CCS2 inlet cannot treat them as interchangeable: the Kurdamir site lists only GB/T. We checked two operators’ maps on November 4 and selected five sites with published addresses, ratings and energy prices.
Stops on the two routes
The westbound sites appear on Charge.az’s map; the northern sites are listed by iVOLT. All five are listed as DC chargers.
| Stop | Listed connectors | Rated power | AZN/kWh |
|---|---|---|---|
| Towards Ganja: Çıraq Hotel, Kurdamir, M2 | GB/T | 120 kW | 0.27 |
| Towards Ganja: Ləki restaurant, km 261 of Baku–Gazakh road | GB/T, CCS2 | 90 kW | 0.27 |
| Ganja: Baku Electronics, Dəyirman roundabout | GB/T, CCS2 | 120 kW | 0.27 |
| Towards Guba: Yolüstü, İqrığ, km 162 | CCS2, GB/T DC | 60 kW | 0.30 |
| Guba: Quba Lukoil, Heydar Aliyev Avenue | CCS2, GB/T DC | 60 kW | 0.30 |
The tariff matters less than the plug
A 30 kWh top-up at these prices costs AZN 8.10 or AZN 9.00. The time difference can matter more than the AZN 0.90 price gap. At a constant 60 kW, transferring 30 kWh would take 30 minutes, versus 15 at 120 kW. These are theoretical minima: the car’s limits, battery temperature and the drop in charging power as the battery fills can all lengthen a stop.
The AYNA register helps locate alternatives. Neither a pin nor a power rating establishes that a compatible plug is free and working now. These are selected sites rather than a complete inventory, so the distances between them do not establish the longest gap in coverage. Check the operator’s app and pick a backup accessible from your side of the road.
The ministry’s November 2 update concerned plans for a unified platform and a way to assess demand. It did not announce new chargers opening on either route.
