In Aotearoa, we're ahead of the pack when it comes to EV charging infrastructure, but to make sure Kiwis are able to get the most out of their EVs, we need to make it even more accessible. In an effort to help reduce range anxiety and support the Government's ambitious plans to combat climate change, Meridian has announced that it is launching a nationwide EV charging network to help remove any stress and leave drivers feeling confident in their decision to go electric. Meridian chief executive, Neal Barclay, says "We know that the electrification of transport is one of the biggest ways that we can help combat climate change. So Meridian is launching a nationwide network of more than 200 EV chargers that we will install within the next three years". The Meridian EV charging network is a multi-million-dollar investment to provide affordable charging stations in the places that Kiwis live and play.
