Popular regional destinations like Emerald’s Town Centre and Blackwater’s Visitor Information Centre feature reliable Chargefox stations with CCS2 connectors, ideal for quick top-ups during day trips. Clermont’s Showgrounds hosts a dual-port Evie Networks charger, compatible with both CCS2 and CHAdeMO vehicles. These locations combine charging convenience with amenities like shaded parking and café access, making them practical stops for local EV owners.
