With its sun-drenched streets and eco-minded community, St Mary is fast becoming a hub for electric vehicle (EV) adoption. Between 2021 and 2023, local EV registrations surged by 153% – from 141 to 357 vehicles – as residents embrace cleaner transport. Whether you’re a local owner or visiting this growing suburb 20km from Brisbane, here’s your guide to staying charged.
Public Charging Made Simple Four public charging stations service St Mary and its surrounds, blending convenience with functionality. The St Mary Central Shopping Centre hosts a 50kW DC charger (CCS2/CHAdeMO), perfect for topping up while grabbing groceries. For slower charging, Riverside Park Community Hub offers a 22kW Type 2 charger amid picnic spots – ideal for daytime visitors. Travellers appreciate the 350kW ultra-rapid CCS2 charger at Gateway Motorway Rest Stop, slicing charging times for models like the Kia EV6 to just 18 minutes (10-80%).
Compatibility Matters Most stations support CCS2 (used by 80% of new EVs like the BYD Seal and Genesis G80) and Type 2 connectors. While CHAdeMO ports exist for older models, their availability is dwindling. Chargefox and Evie Networks dominate local infrastructure, though Tesla drivers can access nearby Superchargers via adaptors.
Solar: Your Home Charging Superpower St Mary’s 5.17kW/m²/day solar potential (converted from 18.60MJ/m²/day) makes sun-powered charging a smart choice. A 6kW solar system typically generates 24kWh daily – enough to fuel a BYD Seal’s 510km range weekly. Pairing panels with a home charger slashes energy costs: charging a Kia EV6 (16.5kWh/100km) entirely via solar cuts $460/year versus grid power. Queensland’s rebates and feed-in tariffs sweeten the deal further.
Local Tips for Savvy Owners
- The BYD Seal’s 13.8kWh/100km efficiency makes it a solar charging standout
- Mercedes eVito drivers should prioritise Type 2 public stations for optimal speeds
- Off-peak grid charging (10pm-7am) complements solar for hybrid setups
