Report extract
Evie Networks’ Future Fuels Public Fast Charging program commenced in August 2021. Evie’s first charging station under this program was launched in October 2021. As of May 2022 Evie has commissioned 11 out of a total of 158 fast charging stations, with many more in the pipeline to be built. In addition to the Future Fuels Fund program, Evie operates approximately 50 other fast charging stations located in metropolitan areas, on highways and in regional towns. Operating a diverse network has enabled Evie to garner insights about utilisation, performance and costs associated with operating charging infrastructure.
