SOARING FUEL PRICES and lower

operating costs of EVs is making e-mobility an attractive choice for Australian drivers. According to the Electric Vehicle Council, EV sales in Australia have tripled since 2020 to reach 20,655 in 2021. EVs now make up 2 per cent of all vehicles sold nationally and many consumers are waiting months or longer for some popular EV models.

Yet, with more and more EVs on our roads, we’ll need a lot more chargers to allay drivers’ range anxiety and support nationwide electrification. In a 2021 Savvy survey, 17 per cent of respondents were most concerned about charging station availability when making an EV purchase. Savvy reports that Australia currently has just over 3,000 EV public charging points to cover 7.692 million square kilometres.

Founded in 1971, Delta Electronics is a global provider of power and thermal management solutions. Delta products power much of the electrical equipment and devices used every day including electric vehicles themselves. With R&D, manufacturing and sales networks spanning the globe, Delta builds on its expertise in power conversion and efficiency to develop parts and EV chargers (both on-board and offboard) for top car manufacturers.

Delta’s localised EV charging solutions for Australians

Over the years, Delta Electronics Australia has offered EV drivers a wide range of AC and DC chargers for both home and public charging that operate reliably in Australia’s tough and varying environmental conditions.

In May, Delta Australia announced a first-of-its-kind partnership with Australian EV charging software company Everty. Australian EV drivers can now access realtime information around charger condition and maintenance, and select charging at off-peak periods for significant cost savings. Everty’s intuitive software also offers billing management for Delta EV Chargers to support the multitude of Charge Point Operators in the broad market.
