As per ongoing dialogue with EECA:
documentation for the EV
• 24 Holiday Parks have ordered a total of 27
chargers
doublehead AC charging units, this is equal to 54
single units. 2
thl branch locations have ordered a
total of 4 single AC chargers
• For milestone tranches 3 & 5 EECA were estimating a
purchase of 50 singles, we are tracking to install the
equivalent of 58 single units
• Total payable by EECA is $5k per charger which we
are expecting to be $10k per double head charger.
Currently we are tracking to $6,200 + $6,000 =
$12,200 per site, so again we are over allocated
• Please note, we are also including $17k to cover EV
cable costs to give us the ability to charge the EV at
HPNZ locations
