JET Charge has completed a large-scale electric delivery vehicle charging project in partnership with IKEA Australia, installing 59 chargers at 7 locations across the country—Tempe, Rhodes, Marsden Park, Sydney CDC, Canberra, Springvale and North Lakes. Future deployments are planned for Richmond and Logan.

“This project proves that zero-emission logistics isn’t just possible—it’s scalable,” said JET Charge CEO and co-founder Tim Washington. “By building intelligent, fit-for-purpose infrastructure, we’ve given delivery partners the reliability they need on the road and IKEA the visibility to lead real emissions reductions across its supply chains. It’s a blueprint any retailer can follow.”

The project included implementation of smart load management for future-proofing and managing energy constraints, as well as the integration of a Chargefox billing system, which allows third-party drivers to pay for charging sessions while reimbursing IKEA for electricity usage.

IKEA says that more than 100 vehicles are now charging at the company’s sites, indicating strong demand from third-party delivery partners.

“JET Charge’s infrastructure, which spans the majority of our Australian delivery network, is already having a significant impact,” said Alexandra Kelly, IKEA Zero Emission Delivery Project Lead, Australia and New Zealand. As of October 2025, some 83% of IKEA deliveries were completed by zero-emission vehicles, Kelly added. “We aim to hit 90% by the end of 2025 and the last 10% when technology allows.”
