Electric vehicles in NSW

Read the paper Electric vehicles in NSW

Electric Vehicles (EVs) offer the promise of inexpensive and environmentally friendly driving. Yet, despite the allure of this promise, sales of EVs in Australia and NSW have not increased in line with global trends. It is in this context that this e-brief discusses the potential benefits of EVs; the main concerns relating to their manufacture and use; global EV policies; the relationship between EV policy and energy policy; and recent developments in Queensland and Victoria.
