October 21st, 2024Ballarat EV fast charge station finally upgraded

The region’s electric car owners are breathing a sigh of relief following the completion of long-awaited upgrade work to the RACV’s electric vehicle charging  stations in Ballarat.

Recently completed works now sees the CBD Ballarat charge station at 61 Curtis  Street, near Big W, providing two new 50-kilowatt and two new  350-kilowatt charging stations. 

The local station which had been badly vandalised earlier, has now become the first in the  state to receive the upgrades with similar work also slated for seven other Victorian locations.  

RACV general manager energy  services Greg Edye says the upgrades will provide faster, more reliable  charging and will also  enhance the security of the site.

Upgrades are scheduled for RACV EV charging stations  at Horsham, Euroa, Airport West,  Barnawartha North, and Moe and also at the RACV’s Victorian  resorts and club venues.
