AC charging will be full rate throughout the SOC range - 11kW when you plug in all the way to 100%.

Synergy's problem is the Government/Ministers didn't incorporate WP into the EV Network project alongside Horizon and Synergy, so that they were accountable for project delivery as well. Synergy has to apply for network augmentation like any other commercial applicant and WP currently has no...

Information is reliable, it came directly from Sandra Giry @ Synergy during two recent TOCWA weekly calls, relaying what they had been advised by Western Power.

Online but not yet operational according to the Chargefox app.

Not for another three months o_O, according to the update on last night's TOCWA AUA. Time to start agitating the Energy Minister to get WP to pull their finger out...

Jurien Bay civil works are also nearly complete - site is still awaiting Western Power to install the transformer. I took a photo of it and created the site as "Coming Soon" on Plugshare.

I'll give you a real world data point, currently on a road trip with our MY RWD - two adults, two kids and a cabin bag each. Our first leg (home to Jurien Bay), 218km, 94km/h average speed, departure SoC 100%, arrival 29%. Extrapolating from that we can expect a little over 300km before being...

According to Plugshare checkins and the Chargefox app, Geraldton is operational!

Best of both worlds. When set this way, you can still hold down the right stalk to set cruise to the detected speed.
