Ampol and Mirvac have partnered on a sustainability initiative that will see Ampol install its first AmpCharge electric vehicle (EV) charging bays outside of its service stations.
Under the partnership, Ampol’s AmpCharge bays will be installed throughout Mirvac’s retail portfolio, with the first installation to take place in late-2023.
Mirvac first rolled out EV charging services for customers six years ago. This partnership with Ampol is expected to more than double the number of charging bays across the property group’s retail destinations.
Mirvac Retail General Manager Kelly Miller says since launching fast charges, Mirvac has seen a “significant rise” in usage of charging stations across the portfolio, with a 60% increase in customer utilisation in the past year.
“Mirvac’s partnership with Ampol represents a significant milestone in electrification with two major Australian companies coming together to drive the use of more sustainable vehicles,” she says.
“We recognise it is our responsibility to provide our customers with more sustainable solutions and convenient access to green innovation.”
Ampol Executive General Manager, International and New Business Brent Merrick says Ampol continues to build its AmpCharge network so customers can charge with us wherever and whenever they need.
“This partnership with Mirvac will allow us to expand our offer beyond the forecourt to destinations like Mirvac’s leading property network,” he says. “We look forward to commencing roll-out of this infrastructure over the coming months.”
This agreement will form part of Ampol’s initial commitment to deliver over 300 AmpCharge EV charging bays at more than 100 sites across Australia. The energy used by AmpCharge EV chargers will be 100% offset by large scale generation certificates to net the equivalent electricity consumption.
