News announcements below.
Electrona is pleased to announce that with the support of the Glamorgan Spring Bay Council and ReCFIT, we have established a new Public EV Charging site at Coles Bay.
The site is open and operational 24/7. If someone is already there and charging, you can use the second plug!
This fills a much needed gap on the Freycinet Peninsula and makes travel to this location safer for EV drivers.
The charger is on Harold St, which has toilets, children's playground and open space.
It's only a 10 minute walk to either of the Coles Bay business areas. A return walk in picturesque Coles Bay is an excellent use of the time whilst your car is charging.
Electrona is pleased to announce that with the support of the Central Highlands Council and ReCFIT, we have established a new Public EV Charging site at Bothwell.
The site is open and operational 24/7. If someone is already there and charging, you can use the second plug!
We expect this to be very helpful to those drivers travelling to or from the Lakes Highway as it fills a much needed gap.
Bothwell is a lovely town to visit. Why not drop in, charge your car, support the local businesses and see the local attractions...
A visitors centre and toilets are nearby and the charging station is adjacent to the Memorial Park.
Electrona is pleased to announce that with the support of the Tasman Council, we have established a new Port Arthur Public EV Charging site.
The site is open and operational 24/7... Happy charging!
Electrona is pleased to announce that with the support of the Huon Valley Council, we have resurrected the Huonville Council Carpark EV charging site.

Electrona is expanding the Tasmania fast charger network for EV drivers in regional areas, thanks to the Tasmanian Government ReCFIT ChargeSmart Grants Program.
We are thrilled to be bringing new fast chargers to Port Arthur, Bothwell, Coles Bay, and Orford.
All four of these projects have been commenced, and we're super excited to be provided the oppotunity to deliver these with some help from the grants.
Our newest charger at Buckland is now open to the public. This charger is located conveniently an hour from Hobart on the road to the lovely East Coast.
Users will benefit from this 22kW AC charger with up to 120km range per hour (depending on your vehicle charging capacity / limitations which varies across makes and models).
So have a nice stop in Buckland, head over to the pub or the roadhouse for a feed or explore the area. Public toilets are only 300m away at Buckland Park along with shelter, electric BBQs, picnic table and children's playground.
Located at the historic Old General Store in Buckland, Electrona manages the charger in partnership with the property owner for shared benefit with the community.
It's a great use case for anyone that wants to get better utilisation of their property with public-facing parking amenities.
Our new public rapid Electric Vehicle Charger is now open in Bicheno, Tasmania.
The unit is probably the first in Australia and New Zealand to allow app-free charging using its on-board credit card reader!
It's convenienty located on the East Coast and offers fast charging in a location in the vicinity of all town services.
Two parking bays are reserved for electric vehicle charging only - one for DC rapid charge and the other for AC Charge.
The unit can be safely operated from the footpath.
We are excited to be very near to launching a new public rapid Electric Vehicle Charger in Bicheno, Tasmania.
Our charger unit is physically installed and is currently undertaking configuration and testing.
The new charger will allow both Bicheno locals and visitors the ability to quickly charge their electric vehicles.
Two parking bays will be reserved for electric vehicle charging only - one for DC rapid charge and the other for AC Charge.
This will be a great asset to the Bicheno and the broader community.
Electrona Pty Ltd is a fully Tasmanian-based and Tasmanian-owned company focussing on Electric Vehicle infrastructure, Electric Vehicle fleet planning, consulting, and new energy projects.
We are experienced, patient, flexible and capable.
We continue to build knowledge and capability — implementing Electric Vehicle charging stations, providing expert advice and delivering other projects. We work hard now for the tomorrow that's nearly here.
Tasmania’s story has long been linked to electricity. Our hydro-electric power stations have literally powered our economy on clean renewable energy for decades. Wind farms harnessing the notorious Roaring Forties trade winds and thousands of solar panels have added to their output.
Stephen and Josh were chatting over a Hobart pub-meal. As friends and colleagues that worked on large-scale technology, business and energy projects, the conversation drifted to thoughts of Tasmania’s future. They were optimistic, they love this place, but pragmatic about our challenges. It became apparent that Tasmania had a glaring gap. A market failure. Despite the abundance of clean energy our economy was being held down by old transport models. This was oddly ironic as the future of transport globally was clearly electric, and they knew it.
It didn’t take much pondering to conclude that the obstacle was infrastructure. Tasmania simply did not have the elements in place to support an electric vehicle fleet. Whilst whole industries were developing overseas, Tasmania was lagging. Josh and Stephen discussed a vision that saw Tasmania develop our own electric transport infrastructure industry and thus Electrona was born.
Electrona has been developing local knowledge and capability. They have been researching trends and building the business relationships needed. Whilst international and national corporates battle “to monetise the opportunity”, Stephen and Josh believe Tasmania does things differently. Whilst others misallocate large sums on corporate structures, marketing and lobbying ― Electrona is quietly and busily working on problems and solutions. They plan to stay right here, where it matters, to support Tasmania and its growing EV fleet.
“It’s a big job. We’ve got a business equivalent of Federation Peak to climb. There are lots of challenges. Knowledge, capability, access to technology, logistics, electricity network constraints as well community and user expectations all make it a slow journey. We can’t give up because it’s hard. We’re all going have electric cars someday and we’ll all need to charge them.”
Since commencing, Josh and Stephen have assembled what’s needed to make this work. They are quietly building knowledge and working on projects that deliver value. They are doing it carefully. They are doing it well, and they are doing it right here in Tasmania.
This will launch a separate website window.
Electrona takes all the stress out of managing the EV charger at our accommodation in Buckland on the east coast of Tassie. From installation, to day to day management, everything is taken care of and on the rare occasion something needs attention, Stephen and Josh are onto it straight away. Reliable, efficient, and easy to work with, ensuring that the charging station is always in operation and available for customers to use. Cannot recommend them highly enough as a partner.

We loved the attention to detail and time taken to explain the App and how we can get the most out of our system for our circumstances.
Excellent attention to detail, client focus and willing to spend time to explain the complexities of solar and grid supply issues, follow up offer reassuring.

Electrona are the experts in EV charging installation. They are professional and very helpful.
We’d never before come across such a friendly EV charger technician during our travels in Victoria, New South Wales or Queensland. Gee, Tasmanians really are friendly!
