For public charging, Moyhall residents have two convenient stations within a 20km radius. The Riverside Shopping Centre hosts a 150kW DC fast charger (CCS2/Type 2), perfect for quick top-ups while grocery shopping – ideal for models like the Subaru Solterra that can achieve an 80% charge in 30 minutes here. History buffs will appreciate the heritage-listed Moyhall Community Hub’s 50kW charger (CCS2/CHAdeMO), where you can explore local museums while your Genesis G80 BEV gains 520km of range in under an hour.
These stations operate on the Chargefox and Evie Networks, Australia’s largest charging providers.
