As of August 2026, EVsafe has no charging stations within the boundaries of Cầu Giấy ward. This article lists the 6 nearest charging points to the Cầu Giấy area, accurately recording the current ward of each point, and explains why many addresses in this area are still misrecorded as Trung Hoà, Cầu Giấy.
To be straightforward before you read on: as of August 2026, EVsafe has no charging stations within the boundaries of Cầu Giấy ward. This article does not pretend otherwise. Instead, this is a list of the nearest EVsafe charging points to the Cầu Giấy area, with each point accurately recorded by current ward to prevent you from going to the wrong place, along with an explanation of why addresses in this area are often misrecorded.
Note on administrative boundaries: from July 1, 2025, according to Resolution 1656/NQ-UBTVQH15, Hanoi abolished the district level and reorganized into 126 communes and wards. In this article, the term "Cầu Giấy area" is used in the familiar way that locals refer to it for easy searching, not as an administrative unit name. The address of each station is recorded according to the current ward.
Why addresses around Cầu Giấy are often misrecorded
This is one of the most complex rearranged areas in Hanoi, so the direction tables, directories, and online maps are heavily mixed between the old and new systems.
- The current Cầu Giấy ward was formed from parts of the former Dịch Vọng, Dịch Vọng Hậu, Quan Hoa, Yên Hòa, Mỹ Đình 1, and Mỹ Đình 2 wards. This means the new boundaries do not coincide with the old Cầu Giấy district.
- The old Trung Hoa ward no longer exists. Its area has been divided into three new wards: Thanh Xuan, Yen Hoa, and Dai Mo. Therefore, an address written as "Trung Hoa, Cau Giay" today could fall into any of these three wards.
- Trung Hoa now only remains as a street name, located in Yen Hoa ward. Looking up the map still returns this name, so it's easy to misunderstand it as the ward name.
- The practical consequence: the Duy Quan Coffee station at 48 Quan Nhàn street is still recorded by many places as "Trung Hoa, Cau Giay", while Quan Nhàn street belongs to the Nhan Chinh area, the old Thanh Xuan district, and is now located in Thanh Xuan ward.

What's different about the demand for charging in Cầu Giấy compared to Thanh Xuân
The fact that EVsafe has not yet been present in Cầu Giấy ward is not because this area has little demand - on the contrary, it is one of the few places in Hanoi where users actively search for electric vehicle charging stations along with the name of the area. The difference lies in the type of demand.
- Cầu Giấy is the area with the highest concentration of universities in Hanoi, with the National University of Vietnam, Hanoi National University of Education, and the Academy of Journalism and Communication located along Xuân Thủy street. Students renting rooms around Dịch Vọng and Quan Hoa are a large group of electric motorcycle users who lack safe charging points in their rented rooms.
- The office area around Duy Tân, Trần Thái Tông, and Dịch Vọng Hậu creates a demand for daytime charging right in the building's parking lot, unlike in Thanh Xuân where residents mainly charge overnight in their apartments.
- Since both groups park their vehicles in places that are not their homes, suitable charging points are the parking lots of office buildings, cafes around schools, and boarding houses with shared yards. These are exactly the three types of locations that EVsafe is looking for in this area.
- While waiting for a station to be built directly in the ward, people in the old Trung Hoà area can use the Chill Deck Coffee station on Lưu Quang Vũ street, while those in the Mỹ Đình area can use the cluster of stations in the Mễ Trì and Nguyễn Cơ Thạch urban area.

Revenue-sharing model for landowners
- Landowner invests in equipment: owner receives 90% of revenue, EVsafe receives 10%.
- EVsafe invests in all equipment: landowner does not incur initial capital, receives 40% of revenue, EVsafe receives 60%.
- Revenue reconciliation twice a month, on the 15th and 30th.
Since Cầu Giấy area does not have any charging stations yet, the registered location in this period will be the first EVsafe charging point in the ward. There are no other stations sharing charging turns, and all current demand in the area has to go to the outer districts.
