ActewAGL, in partnership with Evie Networks, to lead the installation of EV charging stations in the ACT
ActewAGL and Evie Networks are proud to expand and upgrade public charging for EV drivers across the ACT. Together, they are delivering a more extensive and convenient network with the addition of 23 publicly accessible EV charging stations, incorporating 46 charging points across Canberra.

With Evie Networks, ActewAGL operates the leading EV charging network in the ACT and across parts of NSW. ActewAGL’s EV charging network was established as a pilot in 2016 and has since matured to achieve strong reliability and satisfaction scores, with a key milestone being the technology and infrastructure upgrades that occurred in 2021 following the launch of ActewAGL’s partnership with Evie Networks.
“With ActewAGL, we are committed to building and expanding our open access ultra-fast electric vehicle charging network in the ACT, ensuring a clean, safe, convenient, and dependable service. With our Australian designed and manufactured fast charging stations, drivers spend less time waiting and more time getting to where they need to go,” said Evie Networks CEO Chris Mills.
