"Australian fast-charging network operator Jolt has announced the launch of a
new automatic charging feature, enabling customers to simply plug in their
vehicle and charge.
Jolt, a Sydney based company with operations in Australia, New Zealand, North
America, and the United Kingdom, operate EV charging networks which provide
users with up to 7 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of free charging each day.
Each fast charger can provide up to free 45 kilometres of charge in just 15
minutes, and all are powered by 100 per cent renewable energy. Jolt is able to
provide its free charging of up to 7 kWh thanks to the digital advertising
screens that house its fast chargers. Charging beyond the free 7 kWh is charged
at the prevailing kWh rate.
Jolt is now rolling out AutoCharge, an automatic EV charging option that will
allow Jolt Plus drivers to simply plug their EV into a Jolt charging station
and immediately begin to charge – similar to the system rolled out years ago by
Tesla.
Once AutoCharge is activated in the Jolt app, a driver’s vehicle is securely
recognised by the network, meaning that every compatible Jolt charge will
instantly recognise the vehicle and begin charging automatically when the
vehicle is plugged in."
