Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Nestled in sunny Queensland, Coonambula’s tight-knit community of 1,730 residents is quietly embracing the electric vehicle revolution. While the town’s EV adoption is modest – plug-in hybrid registrations grew from 7 in 2021 to 8 in 2023 – its abundant sunshine (averaging 5.47 kW/m²/day after converting from 19.70 MJ/m²) and eco-aware locals create perfect conditions for sustainable transport. Let’s explore your charging options in this growing green hub.
Public charging infrastructure remains limited within Coonambula itself, but nearby towns within a 20km radius offer essential options. While specific station numbers aren’t recorded, regional hotspots typically include facilities like the Dalby Shopping Centre (45km west) with 24/7 CCS2 chargers, or the Toowoomba Base Hospital precinct (85km east) featuring Type 2 compatibility. Always check your route planning apps before travelling, as new stations frequently appear across Queensland’s Western Downs region.
Major networks like Chargefox and Evie Networks dominate Queensland’s charging landscape, supporting popular CCS2 and Type 2 connectors. This compatibility covers most local EVs including the Tesla Model 3 (513km range) and BYD Seal (510km range). CHAdeMO users should verify station availability, though adapters can bridge compatibility gaps for models like older Nissan Leafs.
