City of Greater Geelong

Read all case studies

The City of Greater Geelong Council has an ambition to become aleader in the field of sustainable transportation. Encouraging theadoption of electric vehicles in the area is a vital part of this plan.
‍
The City of Greater Geelong now hosts 10 charging stations on the Chargefox platform.
‍
The first public chargers were installed on the Geelong Waterfront in 2018, and several more have been added to the network since. The City understood that despite it being a relatively new concept at the time, tourism required this
infrastructure and largely informed early decisions on site selection. These chargers remain some of the most heavily utilised in the region. The delivery of this publicly accessible infrastructure sought to address range anxiety, which was
certainly a bigger barrier at the time, and boost confidence in the regional network of EV chargers.

“In shaping a future-oriented city, we’re actively engaging with the private and public sectors and researchers and addressing sustainability challenges and fostering innovation. The integration of EV charging infrastructure exemplifies our
commitment to this vision."

“Chargefox is highly regarded, a market leader and more advanced than any other competing products,”

Greater Geelong Mayor, Trent Sullivan
