The 2021 charging station photo competition (June–July 2021)
We started Power Trip because we wanted to make EVs even easier for the new people joining our community.
If you’re like us, you’ve taken a few photos of your EV charging up in some stunning locations around NZ, but they’re now just kinda sitting on your phone, not doing much.
So, we’re running a photo competition to put these images to work, to give new EV owners an extra helping hand when they are finding charging stations in New Zealand using NZ’s EV apps and services.
Prizes
We have partnered with ChargeNet and ElectricAir to offer over $550 value in prizes for photos uploaded to the Power Trip app between 11

.)
Best photo of a charging station, picked by ChargeNet -
By the People, For the People, EV community choice -
Most photos of different charging stations uploaded -
Most instructional photo, picked by a special guest -
Most creative photo, picked by a special guest -
What happens to your photos
When you upload a photo to a charging station on the Power Trip app, your photo is automatically added to that charging station and can be viewed by anyone with the app. It is also tagged with your username.
When we say NZ’s EV apps and services, we mean all of them, not just Power Trip.
Any photos you upload to the Power Trip app will be shared using a
Creative Commons BY-SA license
.
This means anyone can use them so long as they give attribution to your Power Trip username, and make them freely available for others to use as well.
If you would like to delete your photos, send us an e-mail at info@powertrip.earth.
