Find everything you need to electrify your vehicle, home or business at the seventh annual Noosa EV & Electrify Everything Expo happening on Sunday 22 June, 9am to 1pm.

The Noosa expo is South East Queensland’s largest sustainable transport, home and business expo showcasing more than 20 of the latest electric vehicle (EV) brands, e-bikes, e-scooters, and money saving energy solutions.

Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN) chair, Anne Kennedy said, “We’re excited to showcase the largest range of new and recent EV models in cars, vans and trucks to give people a one-stop option to have all your questions answered about owning an electric vehicle and saving on energy bills.”

Platinum sponsor Cricks Maroochydore will display new models from Skoda, VW vans, Zeekr and XPeng. Models from Genesis, Renault, BYD, Leapmotor and other leading brands will also be on display, along with Whipsmart offering financing options. For those needing work vehicles, Farizon and Volvo will show trucks and vans.

Influential Australian EV YouTuber, Sam Evans, aka the Electric Viking, will be there to answer your EV questions.

Additionally, you can chat to private EV owners and view their vehicles in the private owners precinct, where you can find out what it is really like to own an EV.

“We will have a large range of e-bikes and e-scooters on show at the Expo, and you will be able to test ride a bike or scooter to find the right fit for you,” Ms Kennedy said.

When it comes to savings for the hip pocket and reducing your environmental impact, EVs are just part of the solution.

Home and business electrification are other vital ways to save on rising energy costs. Switching your home energy to run off solar, using heat pumps and incorporating battery storage and energy efficiency systems can create significant cost savings. The Noosa EV & Electrify Everything Expo has it all.

More than 65 exhibitors including local businesses and ZEN energy champions will be ready to help you learn how to make the switch, available solutions and answer your questions.

“Excitingly, we will have induction cooktop cooking demonstrations with Noosa celebrity chef and local food ambassador, Matt Golinski,” Ms Kennedy said.

“There will be plenty of fun for the whole family with Hot 91FM kids activities, face painting, live music and street performers, and Unitywater refill stations for clean drinking water all day.

“We also have a great range of high value prizes and giveaways for those who test ride an e-bike or scooter, attend our opening ceremony at 10am, or complete our feedback survey. Prizes include a Segway e-scooter, RACV Noosa package, Ohme home charger and installation, Bluetti portable batteries and others.”

As electric vehicles have reached a significant milestone in Australia with 100 models now available according to The Driven, the Noosa EV & Electrify Everything Expo is an opportunity to explore multiple EV brands in the one location.

Increased electrification will mean substantial savings on your energy bills. The Climate Council of Australia, Smarter Energy Use report highlights that by combining both electrification and practical efficiency upgrades, an average Australian household would save between $1085 and $2872 each year depending on their location. The CSIRO’s Stepping Up Report for Energy Consumers Australia (ECA), found a switch to EVs and appliances, combined with improved energy efficiency measures, could save a household as much as $2250 annually.

The Noosa EV & Electrify Everything Expo is on Sunday 22 June from 9am to 1pm on Sunshine Beach Road, Noosa Heads. Sunshine Beach Rd will be closed for the event. Visit www.noosaevexpo.com.au for travel info and more details.
