We’re excited to announce the first two public electric vehicle (EV) charger locations: Templestowe Village and Tunstall Square. 

About the chargers

Planned for installation in May to June 2025, these charging stations are part of a broader rollout of nine public EV chargers across Manningham.

Powered by renewable energy, these Evie ultra fast chargers are compatible with all EVs. They will provide 150km of range in 30 minutes, with charging costs ranging from 58 to 68 cents per kWh, depending on the location.

Both Templestowe Village and Tunstall Square will each have two chargers, with each charger servicing two parking bays. 

Following engagement with the local businesses, these locations were selected for their proximity to commercial, recreational and tourist destinations, as well as their access to reliable power supplies.

Why we’re supporting EVs

By installing these charging stations – and the seven more to follow – we aim to accommodate the growing use of electric vehicles, especially following new legislated vehicle standards.  

We’re also responding to community support for local public charging facilities, as revealed in our 2023 Manningham community survey. 

The public charging network will help ensure that EV charging is accessible and practical while also reducing our transport emissions, boosting local businesses with enhanced car parking, and supporting EV drivers to travel with confidence.
