Northland's first hyper-rapid charging station has been installed at Kaiwaka to give electric vehicle owners a faster fill up.
ChargeNet has opened the region's first hyper-rapid (300kW) charging location, meaning electric vehicles (EV) can now 'fill up' at Gull Kaiwaka.
The charging location joins the existing hyper-rapid sites at Bombay and Taupō, as well as an additional 250 rapid charging stations across the country.
Co-funded by the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA) through round eight of the Low Emission Transport Fund, the Kaiwaka location is the first for ChargeNet's partner, Gull.
The Dual 300kW Hyperchargers, installed and managed by ChargeNet, are located at the Gull service station on State Highway 1.
