NSW Electric Vehicle Destination Charging Grants Guide

From May to November 2022, the NSW government has introduced a $20 million EV destination charging grant. This grant will allow your site to install public electric vehicle chargers with up to 75% paid for by the NSW government.

This is great news for NSW, as it enables regional visitor destinations across NSW to access our EV charging platform more affordably. This helps to overcome the ‘range anxiety’ experienced by the massively increasing number of EV drivers in our state. This in turn supports growth in the regional NSW economy by enabling EV drivers to more easily visit the amazing locations NSW has to offer.

EV trends in NSW

On top of this grant, the NSW government has also implemented the NSW Electric Vehicle Strategy. This strategy will increase the uptake of electric vehicles in NSW, making it essential for businesses, in particular those located in regional NSW, to stay ahead of the curve by installing public EV charging stations.

By 2031, EV sales in NSW are expected by the NSW government to reach 52% of all car sales in the state and approach 80% by 2036.

To further support this, NSW EV drivers have been given savings and rebates of up to $5,540 through the NSW EV rebate and the EV stamp duty exemption.

How does the grant work?

The grants will fund the following for up to 4 EV chargers per site:

  • 75% towards the cost of eligible 7kW and/or 22kW electric vehicle chargers.
  • 75% towards the cost of installation (capped at $1,000 per charger).
  • 50% towards a 2-year EV charger subscription.

This grant enables enormous savings in futureproofing your business and preparing for the growing uptake of electric vehicles in NSW.

To be eligible, your business must:

  • be located in an eligible regional NSW local government area (LGA).
  • be an approved destination type, including accommodation, attractions, caravan, camping and holiday parks, food and drink, and information services.
  • have no more than one existing EV charger installed.

This means that the grant is eligible for businesses who are new to EV charging, or businesses who are looking to expand their EV charging capabilities.

This grant will be available until November 11, 2022, so don’t wait and apply now! Please check out this link for more details on funding, eligibility, and how to apply:
