Roadster event update We've been tracking the weather closely with local meteorologists, but given the severe conditions predicted & because this event can only be held outdoors, we've made the difficult decision to reschedule. New date is October 15. Additional details to follow

Australia’s largest public DC EV charging station has officially opened. BP Pulse has opened a new 24-stall charging hub near Melbourne International Airport, taking the record from Tesla for the largest public DC charging site in Australia. The site includes 20 × 150kW charging connections alongside 4 × 300kW chargers. And this is what modern charging infrastructure should look like. Half the bays are covered by a canopy, while the other half have been designed for pull-through charging, making them much easier to use for EVs towing trailers. There’s clear signage, room for future expansion, bins and recycling facilities, picnic tables and toilets planned for the site too. Charging starts at $0.72 AUD/kWh for the 150kW chargers and $0.79 AUD/kWh for the 300kW chargers, with activation available through RFID or the BP Pulse app, plus partner-app options. Another big investment in EV infrastructure, another charging record broken, and another example of what’s happening as electric vehicle adoption continues to grow around the world. 24 rapid/ultra-rapid charging connections in one location, and still space to grow. This is the direction of travel now.
