Between 2021 and 2023, EV registrations here surged by 107% – from just 139 electric cars to 288.

Powering Up Around Town Croobyar and its surrounding areas (within a 20km radius) offer 12 public electric vehicle charging stations. The Croobyar Central Shopping Centre remains a favourite, with its 50kW DC charger letting you top up while grabbing groceries – ideal for models like the BYD Atto 3 or Audi e-tron GT. Visitors often use the 22kW Type 2 charger at Shoalhaven District Hospital, while the Greenfields Community Centre’s 11kW station suits longer stops. All locations are accessible 24/7, making them practical for both daily commutes and weekend adventures.
Charging Networks Made Simple Major networks like Chargefox and Evie Networks service the area, alongside Tesla Superchargers 18km north in Nowra. Most stations feature CCS2 connectors (used by 80% of new EVs in Australia) and Type 2 ports. The BYD Dolphin and Mercedes-Benz eVito Tourer both use CCS2, while the MINI Hatch BEV relies on Type 2. CHAdeMO ports are less common but available at three locations – worth noting if you drive a Nissan Leaf.
