What this does not say

Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.

Public charging stations in NOBIL, Norway's national register, by straight-line distance from the address point (not driving distance); stations more than ~30 km away are not considered. Fast means at least one connector of 50 kW or more, derived from each connector's published capacity text; a capacity NOBIL does not state is left out rather than guessed. Private and home chargers are not in the register.
available_now counts connectors whose most recent status on NOBIL's real-time stream was AVAILABLE within the last two hours. The stream reports changes only and not every operator reports to it, so available_now is null when no fresh known status exists. A numeric value counts only reporting connectors; it is not proof of complete station coverage.

Fields

9 of 10 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.
