Electric vehicle charging
We have electric vehicle (EV) charging stations installed at the Clayton and Caulfield campuses for staff, students and visitors to use to charge their vehicles. The electricity at these chargers is free, however you must pay for parking through the CellOPark app.
Charging station locations
| Campus | Car park | Address | Charger type(s) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clayton | N1 Multi-level, ground level, eastern edge | 10 Research Way | Fast (2 vehicles) |
| S2 Underground, level P1, near loading dock | 20 Ancora Imparo Way | Fast (2 vehicles) | |
| Caulfield | Building J Multi-level, level 1 (ground), north-eastern corner | 880 Princes Highway | Rapid (1 vehicle) |
The rapid chargers (50kW) are available for public use. The fast chargers (22kW) are only available for Monash University staff and students.
The rapid charger located at the Clayton N1 Multi-level car park is no longer available for use. The installation of a new rapid charger for this location is being investigated.
Using the charging station and paying for parking
Charging is currently free, however a valid parking session is required for your parking.
- Download the CellOPark Australia and Chargefox apps on your smartphone.
- Drive to campus and park your vehicle in a charging bay.
- Start a parking session in the CellOPark app using the zone codes shown on the parking signs.
- Locate the charging station in the Chargefox app. Unlock the station in the app and then plug in your vehicle. Charging history can also be accessed using the Chargefox app.
Detailed operating instructions for the stations are available here: Tritium Veefil, EV Link.
Parking all day at Clayton campus
If you are parking at Clayton campus all day, you may need to move your vehicle between the EV charging bays and a permit or visitor area.
Staff and students
The CellOPark code 3800821 enables you to park in both the EV bays and the Blue permit areas. You can keep the same session running if you move your vehicle between these areas.
For staff who choose to park in the Red permit area before or after charging, you will need to stop your 3800821 session used whilst charging, and commence a 3800703 session when parked in the Red permit area.
If you have a 30-day permit, you do not need to start a session in CellOPark.
Visitors
The CellOPark code 3800820 enables you to park in both the EV bays and the metered areas. You can keep the same session running if you move your vehicle between these areas.
