Rain, shine or anything in between, drivers need to know their vehicle can stay powered up without disruption. As more Australians make the switch to electric vehicles, public charging that works reliably in all seasons is becoming essential. That is where EVX comes in.
EVX Polechargers are designed and engineered in Australia to handle the everyday realities of local weather. Whether it is a downpour in Sydney, a humid morning in Brisbane or a chilly evening in Canberra, our kerbside chargers are built to perform.
Made for real conditions
Our Polechargers are weatherproof and tested to operate across a wide range of environmental conditions. From rain and wind to heat and humidity, they are built to keep your charging session safe and steady.
This is particularly important for kerbside locations, where exposure to the elements is unavoidable. We have made sure that our technology is sealed and protected so that it works wherever you park and whenever you need it.
Why kerbside matters in all seasons
Many EV drivers cannot install a home charger, especially in dense urban areas with terrace housing or apartments. That is where kerbside charging becomes a game changer.
In winter, people tend to drive more short trips and leave cars parked for longer stretches. In summer, long road trips and holidays call for easy access to public chargers. In every case, visibility and convenience matter. Knowing there is a charger available nearby, that works even when the weather is unpredictable, makes EV ownership more practical for more people.
Charging safely in the rain
One of the most common questions we hear is, “Can I charge in the rain?” The answer is yes. EV charging is safe in wet weather, and EVX Polechargers are no exception.
Our EVX Polechargers are built with safety in mind. The charging ports, sockets and internal systems are protected against water ingress. And because we use standardised plugs and cables, the system is designed to prevent electricity from flowing until both the car and charger are correctly connected. This keeps you safe even in heavy rain.
We also provide a cable hook on each unit so that your charging cable stays off the ground and neatly stored during and after use.
Designed for Australian streets
Australian cities face unique weather challenges. From storms in the east to hot dry winds in the west, infrastructure needs to be built to cope. Our team designs, engineers and assembles all EVX Polechargers in Sydney with these demands in mind.
Every charger is installed with care and precision by local contractors, following strict safety standards. We mount the unit on an existing utility pole, connect it to overhead power, and conduct thorough testing before activating the site. The result is a charging point that blends into the neighbourhood and delivers consistent performance, no matter the forecast.
A smarter way to charge
Our goal is to make charging as easy as parking. That means reliable chargers where you already live, work and travel, and the ability to manage your sessions through the EVX Driver’s App. With live availability, remote start and session tracking, you are always in control.
By focusing on low-impact, scalable kerbside solutions, we are helping build a smarter public charging network for Australia’s growing EV community.
The shift to electric is well underway, and the weather should never be a barrier. Whether it is a wet afternoon or a clear sunny day, EVX Polechargers are ready to help you power up.
Charging should be as seamless as your daily routine, and with EVX, it is. We are proud to deliver dependable, weather-resistant infrastructure that supports cleaner transport and stronger communities. To learn more about how our EVX Polechargers work and where to find them, visit here.
