While still a small community, the suburb saw registered plug-in hybrids jump from 3 in 2021 to 4 in 2023 – a 33% increase – reflecting a growing interest in eco-friendly transport. With 19 MJ/m² of daily solar radiation (equivalent to 5.3 kWh/m²), this climate isn’t just perfect for wildflower seasons; it’s ideal for powering EVs sustainably. Here’s your complete guide to staying charged in Bulyee.
Public Charging: Simple and Accessible Within a 20km radius of Bulyee, you’ll find one public charging station at the Bulyee Community Hub. This 50kW DC charger supports CCS2 and Type 2 connectors – compatible with popular models like the Kia EV6 and CUPRA Born. Open 24/7, it’s strategically placed near picnic areas and local shops, letting you explore the town’s rustic charm while your vehicle charges. Visitors should note this is the sole rapid charger nearby, so planning ahead is wise.
Connector Compatibility Made Easy Bulyee’s charging infrastructure caters to most electric cars in Australia. The CCS2 standard works with modern EVs like the BMW iX, while Type 2 ports suit plug-in hybrids such as the BMW 3 Series PHEV. Though CHAdeMO ports exist regionally, they’re less common locally. Major networks like Chargefox maintain this station, ensuring reliability for both residents and road-trippers passing through WA’s scenic backroads.
Solar Charging: Bulyee’s Secret Weapon With 5.3 kWh/m² of daily solar energy (enough to power a 5kW system producing 26kWh daily), homeowners can slash charging costs dramatically. For example:
- A Kia EV6 driven 50km/day needs ~8kWh – easily covered by 3 hours of sunlight
- A BMW 3 Series PHEV’s 57km battery charges fully in 4 hours using a 3.7kW home charger Pairing solar panels with a $600-$2,000 home charger installation lets you bypass public stations altogether. Given Bulyee’s 449 households often have rooftop space, this approach is both practical and economical long-term.
Powering Forward While public charging options are limited locally, Bulyee’s solar potential offers a compelling alternative. For those ready to embrace cleaner driving, combining a 7kW home charger (like those used by the Peugeot 308 PHEV) with solar panels could reduce annual energy bills by hundreds of dollars.
