Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Glenroi is embracing the electric vehicle revolution with open arms. Between 2021 and 2023, EV registrations in this eco-conscious suburb surged by 135% – from 314 to 737 vehicles. With nearly 17,800 residents and abundant sunshine averaging 4.94 kW/m²/day (converted from 17.80 MJ/m²/day), it’s no wonder locals are pairing their EVs with solar power. Whether you’re a resident or visitor, here’s your complete guide to staying charged.
Public Charging Made Easy Within a 20km radius of Glenroi, 18 public charging stations offer convenience for daily commutes and longer journeys. The Glenroi Central Shopping Centre features 150kW CCS2 fast chargers – perfect for topping up your GWM Ora (which reaches 80% charge in 41 minutes) while grabbing groceries. At Glenroi District Hospital, Type 2 destination chargers provide 11kW charging for staff and visitors, ideal for longer stops. For highway travellers, the Chargefox ultra-rapid station on Mitchell Highway delivers 350kW charging, compatible with luxury models like the Porsche Taycan.
Networks & Compatibility Major networks like Chargefox, Evie Networks, and Jolt Charging dominate the local infrastructure. CCS2 connectors (used by 90% of new EVs in Australia) are widely available, supporting popular models from the affordable GWM Ora to the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV. Type 2 (Mennekes) connectors cater to European vehicles, while CHAdeMO stations remain available for older Japanese models. Tesla drivers can use CCS2 adaptors at most stations, though dedicated Superchargers are located in nearby Orange.
Solar Charging: Power Your EV for Less Glenroi’s solar potential transforms home charging into a money-saving opportunity. A typical 6kW solar system generates enough daily energy to power a GWM Ora for 180km – covering most local commutes. Pairing solar panels with a home charger (like the popular Zappi smart charger) slashes charging costs by up to 70% compared to grid power. For night charging, adding a 10kWh battery stores excess solar energy, providing enough charge for a Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV to travel 35km daily.
The Future is Electric (and Solar-Powered) With 1 in 5 new Glenroi vehicles expected to be electric by 2025, the shift towards sustainable transport is accelerating. Local solar installers report a 40% increase in EV owners adding panels since 2022. As electricity prices rise, solar-charged EVs now cost just $0.03/km to run compared to $0.14/km for petrol vehicles.
