When you’re out and about in your EV, the RAA Charge Network has you covered.

To find your nearest charging station, use the ChargeFox app.

When you arrive at a charging station, park in the designated spot, making sure that your cable can reach the charger.

You’ll need your own Type 2 charging cable to plug into the charger and your EV.

Plug the cable into the charging station before plugging it into your EV.

Start the charge session and monitor the status of your battery using the app.

The charging time will vary depending on your car’s battery.

Our 7kW Destination chargers are designed for longer stays in overnight accommodation or multi-hour car parks.

When you’re done, stop the charge session, unplug the cable and you’re ready to hit the road.

What are idle fees and when do they apply?
We may issue idle fees when your vehicle remains connected to a station well after reaching full charge.

Idle fees are in effect at all DC rapid charging sites in South Australia.

How it works:
- The Chargefox app will notify you when charging is complete
- You’ll get a 10-minute grace period after your car finishes charging
- After that, it's $1 per minute if you stay plugged in. Idle fees will be charged to the credit card linked to your Chargefox account.
Why we have idle fees:

With more South Australians driving EVs, idle fees help keep chargers available for everyone.
How long will it take to charge my EV?
Charging time depends on your car's battery size and the charger type.

Generally, AC (7kW–22kW) chargers take several hours to fully charge a car, so you’ll find them in places like tourist parks and accommodation providers.

DC (60–200kW) chargers take as little as 15 to 45 minutes to fully charge an EV, so you’ll find them along highways and in country towns.
Do I need my own cable to use the charging stations?
It depends on the type of site.

Our AC (7kW–22kW) charging sites will have Type 2 plugs and, to use these, you’ll need your own cable.

Our DC (60–200kW) charging sites are equipped with cables, so you won’t need your own.

Not sure what cable you need? Check the Chargefox app—it shows the plug type for every RAA Charge station.

Our charging stations are inclusive

We're committed to creating a safe and accessible charging network for all drivers, so our charging bays are built with accessibility in mind.

Key features of our accessible charging stations include a larger bay for wheelchair access (marked with priority signage and "use last" instructions) and the consideration of potential obstructions like wheel stops and bollards.
