The Glenugie Community Centre offers a 50kW DC fast charger (CCS2/Type 2) – perfect for topping up your BYD Dolphin while grabbing coffee at the adjacent café. Head 15 minutes south to the Clarence Valley Retail Park, where dual 22kW AC chargers (Type 2) let you shop at major retailers as your Jaguar I-Pace refuels. For highway travellers, the Pacific Motorway Service Station near Grafton features a 350kW ultra-rapid Chargefox station (CCS2) that can take an LDV eDeliver7 from 20% to 80% in just 43 minutes.
Connecting Your Ride Local charging networks like Chargefox and Evie Networks use Australia’s standard CCS2 and Type 2 connectors, compatible with nearly all electric cars in Glenugie. The popular BYD Dolphin and Lexus UX BEV both use CCS2, while luxury models like the Jaguar I-Pace rely on Type 2. CHAdeMO ports are rare here, so Nissan Leaf owners should carry adapters.
