Government Electric Vehicle Charging Solutions

EO chargers are currently in use in North Queensland’s most popular tourist locations to create Australia’s first Electric Vehicle Tourist drive.

The 500-km tropical North Queensland Electric Vehicle drive will feature twelve electric vehicle charging stations at:

• Paronella Park
• Herberton Historic Village
• Coffee Works Mareeba
• Skyrail Rainforest Cableway
• Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures
• Mossman Gorge Visitor Centre

“These new charging stations will make Queensland more accessible and attractive to visitors driving electric vehicles, and with that increased tourist activity comes with it more jobs,” State Development Cameron Dick.

Electric vehicle charging infrastructure such as this is an important step in helping Queenslanders transition to electric vehicle ownership. Destination EV charging allows people to stop, enjoy the local attractions, have a meal and spend some time in and around town before heading off to their next location and forms an important part of the overall EV charging infrastructure not only in Queensland but right across Australia. The North Queensland Electric vehicle drive builds on the existing Queensland Electric Superhighway which has a mixture of Rapid and AC car charging stations to allow for long-distance road trips right up and down the Queensland coast.

This EV charging addition fits into the current Queensland state government’s future-focused infrastructure plan and renewables and emissions targets set for 2030 and 2050.
