The WA EV Network has expanded to Jurien Bay, linking Perth to Northampton.
According to a statement from the WA government, the charger is conveniently located at the Murray Street Road Reserve, near the Indian Ocean Drive shopping complex.
The site features a DC 150-kilowatt fast charger, allowing drivers to top up their EVs in as little as 20 minutes, and a back-up AC 7.6kW charger.
Synergy delivered the fast charger in collaboration with the Shire of Dandaragan, to ensure a “fast and enjoyable user experience”.
“The opening of this EV charging site in Jurien Bay is an exciting milestone in the WA EV Network,” says WA Energy Minister Bill Johnston.
“It links Perth to Northampton, with chargers now operating in Perth, Lancelin, Geraldton and Northampton.
“The EV charging sites are boosting tourism and making electric transportation more accessible for communities across WA.”
WA EV Network charging stations are now operational across 11 locations across the state, including Kings Park, Carnarvon, Broome and Albany.
Synergy EV charging sites are opening soon in Southern Cross and Coolgardie, while Horizon Power is expected to deliver EV charging sites in Exmouth, Karratha, Esperance and Denham.
The $21 million WA EV Network, part of the state government’s Electric Vehicle Strategy for Western Australia, will be the longest in Australia. It will feature 98 EV charging stations across 49 locations, stretching over 7000km, from Kununurra in the north, to Esperance in the south and east to Eucla.
