AGL is working to make electric vehicle (EV) charging more affordable by providing discounted charging rates for customers at bp pulse stations.
All AGL customers will now receive a discount of six cents per kilowatt hour (kWh) off the standard retail price of EV charging at bp pulse stations across the country, once they register and create a bp pulse account.
The company said as Australia transitions to a low-carbon future, its strategic partnership with bp pulse will seek to empower our customers by helping to reduce the cost of charging.
AGL customers can access the discount at more than 220 EV charge points in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, Western Australia and the ACT.
AGL Head of Mobility, Mabelle Reyes, said the extended offer forms part of AGL’s broader commitment to driving electrification across Australia.
“This expansion offer adds to our market leading Night Saver EV energy plan for EV customers, as well as home charging solutions and our EV subscription model, all of which work to deliver value for customers who are electrifying the way they live, move and work.”
bp pulse Australia General Manager, Antoine Denis, said partnerships like this support the emerging EV industry in Australia.
“As one of Australia’s largest energy retailers, we’ve partnered with AGL so that even more EV drivers can access convenient charging and preferential pricing.
“Our team is strategically installing EV chargers at bp sites where we anticipate EV drivers need them the most. We’ve started by prioritising charging where it can help the most drivers on-the-go, like the inner city and highway routes.
“As demand for EV charging grows our network will grow too, ensuring we’re supporting our customers no matter their choice of mobility.”
