Powering Australia - Driving the Nation Fund
In the 2022-23 Budget, the Government increased the Commonwealth’s investment in EV charging, refuelling infrastructure, and fleets through the Driving the Nation Fund, bringing the total investment to just over $475 million.
This funding supports three initiatives:
o National EV Charging Network: $39.3 million to NRMA to deliver chargers on key national highway routes.
o DRIVEN Program: $60 million to support the installation of EV charging infrastructure at automotive dealerships and repairers across the country.
o Driving the Nation Program: co-funded initiatives through the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) that reduce transport emissions.
