Australia’s largest ultra-rapid EV charging network expands into New South Wales
" Chargefox, Australia’s largest electric vehicle (EV) charging network, has further expanded with the opening of its sixth ultra-rapid charging station in Sydney today – the first in New South Wales. Located at Zetland’s East Village Shopping Centre, the charging station is capable of delivering up to 400km of charge in 15 mins (or 200km of charge in 8 mins), backed up by 100% renewable energy. Marty Andrews, Chargefox CEO, said, “From day one, our vision has been to see 100% of road travel powered by renewable energy, and our ultra-rapid chargers accessible to all Australians. Today’s announcement – in Australia’s most populous city – brings us one step closer to that vision.We aim to make EV charging as fast and easy as possible for all Australians, and we’re excited to be leading the way in delivering world leading infrastructure backed by renewable energy, like at this site.” This is the first of 9 ultra-rapid charging stations that Chargefox has planned for NSW, all built with investment from NRMA. It adds to the already expansive network of 47 fast charging stations operated by Chargefox in the state. Fast charging stations are capable of adding up to 60 kms of range in 15 minutes. When combined with the current 25 fast chargers operated by NRMA (plus an additional 15 to be rolled out before the end of the year), NSW is fast becoming one of Australia’s best serviced states for EV drivers.
