Public Charging in Fisher Fisher itself currently has no public EV charging stations. However, nearby towns within a 20km radius offer accessible options through networks like Chargefox and Evie Networks. Popular charging hubs in regional South Australia typically feature:
- CCS2 & Type 2 connectors – compatible with most modern EVs
- 50-350kW DC fast chargers – ideal for longer journeys
- Strategic locations at shopping centres, rest stops, and key highways
Charging Compatibility Made Simple Most Fisher EV owners drive models like the BYD Seal (510km range) or Hyundai Ioniq 5 (451km range), both using CCS2 connectors. Plug-in hybrids like the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross PHEV utilise Type 2 sockets. With CHAdeMO becoming less common, always check your vehicle’s requirements before travelling.
Solar Charging: Fisher’s Secret Weapon Fisher’s high solar radiation (5kW/m²/day) makes home charging remarkably cost-effective. Pairing a 6.6kW solar system with:
- The BYD Seal’s 13.8kWh/100km consumption = $0.05/km
- A traditional petrol car averaging 8L/100km = $0.24/km (at $1.50/L) Over 10 years, this could save $11,400 on fuel costs for 15,000km annual driving. Even Porsche Cayenne PHEV owners can offset 20.9kWh/100km consumption with proper solar sizing.
Practical Tips for Fisher EV Owners
- Home Charging – Install a 7kW AC charger (4-6 hour full charge)
- Solar Optimisation – Time charging between 10am-3pm for maximum solar utilisation
- Trip Planning – Use your EV’s 250km+ range (common in modern models) for regional travel
