Charging the Regions 2
Driving off the major highways into regional Victoria will soon be much easier for Electric Vehicle (EV) drivers thanks to a new network of electric vehicle charging stations.
The Central Victorian Greenhouse Alliance (CVGA) is working in partnership with 13 local councils and the Victorian Government to roll out a network of public EV charging infrastructure. In addition to council contributions, the CVGA received funding under the State government's stimulus package to address the Electric Vehicle charging station gaps identified in our Charging the Regions Case Study project. The funding will fast track investment in key towns to ensure there is a dense network of charging stations in the Mallee and Loddon Campaspe region, as well as other regions in Victoria. The project will install a mix of DC fast chargers, located on council land and in locations identified in collaboration with participating councils.
The Charging the Regions project is a partnership between CVGA, DELWP and the following partner councils:
- Mildura Rural City Council
- Swan Hill Rural City Council
- Campaspe Shire Council
- Loddon Shire Council
- Central Goldfields Shire Council
- Gannawarra Shire Council
- Buloke Shire Council
- Macedon Ranges Council
- Mount Alexander Shire Council
- City of Greater Bendigo
- Greater Shepparton City Council
- Wellington Shire Council
- Whittlesea Shire Council
The roll out and ongoing maintenance of the network is being managed by Evie Networks.
