Perth council’s committee of the whole was plugged into a discussion on electric vehicle charging at their meeting this week.
A motion to install level 3 electric vehicle or EV charging stations was up for a committee vote. Those chargers are much faster than the units that are currently in use. Its a difference of charging a car in a half an hour vs. hours.
Local drivers of electric cars have been hoping for the new units.
Councillor Barry Smith asked if the slower speeds of the current units were making them obsolete. Mayor Fenik answered with a simple “yes”.
The motion to forward the proposal to the next budget discussions was approved.
