We’ve installed 42 electric vehicle (EV) chargers on our Melbourne (Bundoora) Campus as part of our Net Zero journey. 26 EV charges are available for staff, students, visitors and the general public to use, along with 16 chargers for our passenger fleet vehicles, which we’re currently transitioning to all electric.
We’re making the switch to electric vehicles across our campuses, replacing our entire fleet throughout 2023. We’ll eliminate 200,000 kilograms of CO2 each year once we’ve transitioned to a fully electric passenger fleet.
Charging stations are ready to use at our Melbourne (Bundoora) and are expected to be available at Bendigo and Albury Wodonga campuses at the end of July 2023. We’ll be installing chargers at our Mildura and Shepparton campuses into 2024, in line with our work programs.
How it works
Public EV charging bays can be found in Melbourne (Bundoora) Car Parks 1, 3, 6, 7A and LTSS.
These bays are equipped with Level 2 chargers, which provide around 40km of charge per hour. The chargers are free to use, you just need to ensure you’ve paid for parking and brought your own cable to plug in.
Please note: Parking in the EV charging bays is limited to a maximum of 4 hours. A parking infringement may be issued if you overstay. If you need to park longer, you’ll need to move to a regular bay and ensure you have a valid ticket.
