Evie EV charging networks

[B3AU]

The longstanding 50kW charger at Dan Murphys Batemans Bay has recently switched from Chargefox to Evie - likely part of this partnership.

Happy Eater!

Remember folks, don’t drink and charge!

A couple in the Westfield carpark near Dan Murphy Belconnen wouldn't go astray.

Evie released some charger leaderboards for December 2022 / January 2023 in this article. The top 5 sites over that period by total kWh were:

1. Seven Hills, NSW
2. Sutton Forest, NSW
3. Coomera, QLD
4. Coochin Creek, QLD
5. Tarcutta, NSW

Seven Hills must be due an upgrade to 4 units, if they can get the power!

I imagine Taree would normally be a contender for that list too.

I was hoping for them to give the numbers on the total kWh delivered for each site, but I guess that might be information they find valuable to keep secret.

Does Taree have a power problem in the area? I remember both Evie stations went down for a prolonged period of time.
Then there's no news about the SC that's supposed to be in here as well.

New Evie 350kW site in Prosperine (between Mackay and Townsville) in Qld.

That information would be gold for their competitors, so of course they won’t release it!

Excellent - 250km from their existing FNQ site at Cluden.

Have been waiting for this one for a long time! Should make trips to Brisbane so much faster. 190kW on Evie vs 42kW on QESH is no comparison. Can't wait to try it on my next trip

Considering the QESH DC unit at Proserpine cuts out after a few minutes (or did for a mate of mine the other day)...

...and considering the QESH AC unit at Proserpine isn't correctly set up in the Chargefox app, so you can't lift the green flap & plug in...

190kW on Evie vs 2kW at some motel in Airlie Beach that he booked himself into is no comparison!

Beating a dead horse here but those Tritium units are junk. I've heard a lot of the QESH ones are cutting off after stating a charge lately

The older ones maybe, Evie seem to be getting good uptime with the newer ones.

 

[moa999]

Depends. Some of these new Evie sites are the 350kW which are still an original design.

Much if the Gold Coast network which uses newer RTM75s has had average uptime.

Biggest difference seems to be between operators and what their spares stock, service arrangements and spare parts SLS is.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. Meant the RT50 QESH chargers

Too bad I am not on Fakebook!

I considered it, but I use RFID and always will, so I won't bother.

New RFID registration screen?

Unfortunately in typical Tritium fashion, barely a month after going live, both the Proserpine 350kW units are out of service
