Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Nestled in sunny Queensland, Duingal is embracing the electric vehicle revolution with open arms. This eco-minded community of 5,529 residents has seen EV registrations jump from just 19 plug-in vehicles in 2021 to 33 in 2023 – a striking 74% increase. With an average solar radiation of 5.25 kW/m²/day (converted from 18.90 MJ/m²/day), it’s no surprise locals are pairing their EVs with rooftop solar to harness the region’s abundant sunshine.
While Duingal’s public charging infrastructure is still growing, drivers currently have access to one reliable charging station within a 20km radius. The Duingal Town Centre Charging Hub offers CCS2 and Type 2 connectors, making it compatible with popular models like the Polestar 2 (625km range) and BMW iX (420km range). Located near essential services, this station provides convenient charging while you shop or handle errands. For longer journeys, the nearby Chargefox network – Australia’s largest ultra-rapid network – remains accessible within a short drive.
Most modern EVs in Duingal use CCS2 or Type 2 connectors, which suit 90% of local models including the affordable BYD Seal (510km range) and luxury Volvo XC90 PHEV. While CHAdeMO ports exist, they’re less common – something to consider if you’re purchasing a second-hand Japanese import.
The real charging revolution, however, is happening in Duingal’s driveways. With that impressive 5.25 kW/m²/day solar potential, a typical 6.6kW solar system can generate enough energy to power both a home and an EV. Take the BYD Seal as an example: its 13.8kWh/100km consumption means just four hours of Queensland sunshine could fuel a 50km commute. Over a year, solar charging could save $800-$1,200 compared to grid power – figures that make even the premium BMW iX ($136,900) cheaper to run than petrol equivalents.
For Duingal residents, the smartest charging solution often starts at home. Pairing a 7kW Wallbox charger with solar panels creates a future-proof setup that dodges public station queues and rising electricity costs. Whether you’re charging a MINI Hatch BEV overnight or topping up a Polestar 2 during daylight hours, solar integration turns your garage into a personal fuel station.

With the right setup, you’ll be powering your drives with sunshine – and keeping more dollars in your pocket with every kilometre.
