Exploring suitable locations, support for the infrastructure and level of demand.

We’re working with Ausgrid on a trial of on-street electric vehicle charging.

This trial will help us better understand on-street electric vehicle charging needs and demand at suitable locations in our area. It will also support EV owners who do not have access to charging at home.

Installation and management

Ausgrid and its charging partner’s EVX and Plus ES will install, manage and maintain the chargers and power poles. The chargers will operate under a user pays model. Bookings will be required in the respective charging partner apps. Users won’t be charged parking fees during this trial.

We changed the kerbside restrictions for the trial. There’ll be a maximum 4 hour parking time limit for charging during the day, and longer stay charging overnight.

As electric vehicle ownership increases, more on-street charging in our local area may be needed. This must not come at the expense of enjoyment of public space.
