Drive electric NSW EV kerbside charging grants
We know most electric vehicle (EV) charging will be done at home. However, approximately one in 3 drivers across NSW do not have access to off-street parking to charge an EV.
That’s why we’re investing $10 million across multiple funding rounds to install EV kerbside chargers in areas of NSW with the least access to private, off-street parking.
Benefits of kerbside charging
- residents can be confident that they can transition to an EV knowing they have access to essential charging options
- supports our progress towards achieving your net zero and sustainability goals
- community adoption of EVs will increase
- you'll secure your reputation as a leading local government.
- access to convenient public charging options
- gain newer, more efficient transportation options
- reduce transport costs
- attract EV drivers to spend time and money at local businesses
- improve local air quality.
As you work to increase your presence in the NSW network, the kerbside charging grants will help you:
- improve commercial viability of kerbside charging installations through co-funding
