'Australia's waking up': take-up of electric car charging points to market shift | p_hannam

When property developer Mirvac introduced its first electric car charging points at its shopping centres in October 2017, it would typically attract just 300 charging "events" a month.

The availability of public charging sites "has been the area that's been lagging the most", Mr Jafari said. Not only has absence of such facilities put off potential EV owners worried about their ability to recharge for longer journeys, it has also deterred renters or those without off-street parking.

Greg Johnson, Stockland's National Sustainability Manager, said demand had increased steadily at the 25 retail centres it operates with EV charges.
