Public Charging in Yarrol Yarrol itself currently lacks public electric vehicle charging stations, making home charging the primary solution for residents. Those travelling beyond town will need to plan ahead, though major networks like Chargefox and Evie Networks operate throughout regional Queensland. The nearest Tesla Supercharger sits approximately 140km away in Toowoomba, ideal for longer journeys.
Charger Compatibility Most local EVs – including popular models like the Jeep Compass PHEV (Type 2 connector) and Hyundai Ioniq 5 (CCS2) – align with Australia’s standard charging infrastructure. CCS2 remains the dominant connector for newer vehicles, compatible with everything from the BMW iX1 to the Genesis GV70 BEV. While CHAdeMO ports exist nationally, they’re less common in Yarrol’s current EV mix.
Solar Charging: Yarrol’s Bright Future With solar radiation levels 22% above the Australian average, Yarrol residents can harness significant savings. A typical 6.6kW solar system here generates about 26kWh daily – enough to fully charge a Jeep Compass PHEV (16.6kWh/100km) while covering 85% of an Ioniq 5 owner’s weekly driving needs (based on 400km/week). Pairing solar with off-peak tariffs could reduce charging costs by up to 90% compared to petrol vehicles.
