Electrify Canberra - Suburb Zero ACT

You might have seen Dr Saul Griffith on 9 News last night talking about Electric Saul. ⚡️

So, what is it? Electric Saul is our free new online tool that helps you work out your next best step towards an electric home.

It gives you personalised, independent, expert advice based on your home whether that’s replacing your gas hot water, getting an EV, adding solar or a battery, or simply figuring out where to start.

It's been built with Google and backed by years of Saul’s and Rewiring Australia’s expertise and research.

We know many in our community are already well into their own electrification journey.

If that’s you, pls share Electric Saul with someone who’s still wondering where to start. It could save them thousands and help us electrify all of Australia.

So fabulous to have Jo Clay MLA join the local community who were keen to learn more about EVs from EV owners.

I joined Electrify Canberra - Suburb Zero ACT and AEVA ACT at Hawker shops today to chat to folk about all things EV - and I got a coffee made from an EV-powered coffee-maker :)

17 EVs and at least 9 different makes joined our “Meet an EV Owner” at Torrens Shops.

It was a beautiful day, great conversations, lots of knowledge sharing on range anxiety, second hand EVs, novated leases, charging when you live in an apartment, and frustration with long waiting lists.

Damian and Tony demonstrated Full Self Drive trips which feel like having your own chauffeur!

Isa and Colin talked about range anxiety, and leasing. Julie talked about Plugshare, highway charging and buying second hand EVs. Jenny gave a plug for great charging spots when you live in apartments. Sarah talked to everyone about everything. John talked about how cheap EVs are to run. Our friends from AEVA talked about long trips across Australia in EVs. Bobby is on a mission to get more BYD T3s into Australia as the perfect tradie van that’s cheap to run.

So many fabulously enthusiastic owners, we’re excited to run our next one. We’re thinking Belconnen. Where do you want us to bring our EV owners to talk all things EVs? What cars do you want to check out?
