The Northern Midlands Council approved the application for a 350 kilowatt station at 3 Commonwealth Lane, Campbell Town at its February meeting.
The proposed $435,000 project will feature two outlets with the ability to give an electric vehicle 350 kilometres range in only 15 minutes.

Council's consultant planner Chloe Lyne said its location was entirely appropriate and utilised an existing car parking space efficiently.
"There were three representations to the proposal, all of which are strongly in favour of the development proceeding," she said.
"The nature of the use means there will be no amenity issues as the charging process does not emit sound."
The town was promised a station in 2019 by Chargefox but the company changed its location to Launceston.
