The Heidelberg West Chargefox ultra-rapid hub (18km away) offers 350kW CCS2 chargers compatible with models like the Genesis GV60, which can achieve 10-80% charge in 18 minutes. Closer options include the 50kW CCS2/Type 2 chargers at Bundoora’s Polaris Shopping Centre (12km), ideal for the BYD Seal’s 510km range battery. Always check connector compatibility – most new EVs like the BMW i4 use CCS2, while older models may require Type 2 adaptors.
With 5.3kW/m²/day of solar radiation (converted from 19.10MJ/m²/day), Ivanhoe homeowners have exceptional potential for solar-powered EV charging. A 6.6kW solar system could generate 26kWh daily – enough to fully charge a BMW 5 Series BEV (16.5kWh/100km) for 1,575km monthly driving. Pairing solar with a 7.4kW home charger slashes charging costs by 60-80% compared to grid power. The BMW XM’s 30.4kWh/100km consumption becomes far more affordable when offset by solar, with payback periods for solar-charger combos often under 5 years.
