Public charging stations
Just like there are service stations for petrol cars, there is an emerging network of public EV charging stations for electric car owners.
While EV charging at home is convenient, we know almost 30% of NSW residents who rent or live in apartments may need to rely on public EV charging.
Depending on where they are located, there are a range of public charging facilities available to suit your needs.
Alternating current (AC) public charging stations
These public charging stations use AC electricity and can fully charge (0 to 100%) an EV in 6 to 10 hours. They are commonly located in shopping centres, car parks and increasingly on power poles along kerbsides.
