Thankyou for pointing out the huge gaps anywhere between Werribee and Hamilton. Also huge gaps between Nhill and Hamilton. In those small countries towns without an EV Charger you may have 3+ servos you do get some odd looks but it is getting better than it was a few years ago.
I’m afraid you don’t realise how good you have it in VIC… and yet some still seem dissatisfied
. Here’s the Evie map for NSW… for any station count, not only 2+See all those stations shown near the Murray River? All of them are in Victoria…
For starters, Chuq's map doesn't have the non Evie charger options in Horsham, which is the route most people would take between Nhill and Hamilton.
I mean it's got a way to go, but we don't have it bad.
But that's a function of funding.
NRMA have (to date) been the only ones with funding in regional NSWs.
Evie's chargers are all on the highway (Arena UltraFast funding) and in major cities (NSW Govt suburban funding)
I noticed this week that Evie Leichhardt have reconfigured their site. Where they used to have 2 units side by side and 2 EV spaces, they have moved one of the units around the corner and each one now serves two spaces (I think these are RTM75 units?).
The original location has 1 x CCS2 and 1 x CHAdeMO. The new spot has 2 x CCS2. So this site can now charge 4 cars simultaneously (3 x CCS2) instead of 2.

Was back in Beechworth charging this morning before doing a run out to bright then back to albury.
The charger here is in the council carpark. I should forward all of these photos to my council who claim to have conducted an extensive survey of all councils, and their highly paid advisers determined that no council in australia is facilitating EV charging.
While i was there a guy and his wife turned up in a new ionic6.
You could show them this location in Newcastle. It was installed by Newcastle City Council. It has a big (about 33kW) solar canopy with a single 50kW CCS2 charger (can be split between 2 cars at once) and 4 AC (max 22kW) chargers. On the ChargeFox network. Currently free to use .
Not for much longer.

I must say I’d be happy to see them start charging. They get some repayment for the expense, EV uptake is gaining traction and those chargers are very busy.Not for much longer.

You could also tell them about the 50kW DC charger on Flinders St in Townsville. It is provided free by the city council. It is malfunctioning at the moment, but Plugshare shows heaps of use (which would also be a small subset of the actual use) over a period of years.

Another Evie site spotted.
HomeCo. Prestons. HomeCo. Prestons (Coming Soon) | Prestons, NSW | EV Station
Previously had 2x dual ChargePoint units (ChargePoint HomeCo Prestons | Prestons, NSW | EV Station).
(interestingly NRMA had won funding in Round 1 to put 4 charging bays in - so not sure how Evie ended up with it?
