Consultation has concluded
The community have told us how important addressing climate change is to them. As part of our commitment to creating a healthy community in a liveable city, we’re working with Endeavor Energy and EVX Australia to pilot kerbside Electric Vehicles (EV) charging sites. A pilot allows us to temporarily try out having chargers in the proposed locations. We can then assess what works, or what doesn’t, before deciding if they should be made permanent and if we provide more in other locations.
Why are we piloting EV charging points?
EVs provide many benefits to the community including:
Reduced air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions
Reduced fuel costs
Lower maintenance costs, and
Less noise.
A cleaner, quieter and more sustainable road network.
While many EV owners have a home charging point, some households in higher-density suburbs and apartment owners don’t have a garage where a charger could be installed. This pilot will allow EV owners who don’t have access to off-street parking to charge their vehicles.
We’re excited to partner with Endeavor Energy and EVX Australia on this pilot to use streetside power poles to support EV charging. EVX Australia will provide and manage the EV chargers, Endeavour Energy will supply renewable power to the network, and we’ll dedicate street parking spaces.
Locations across the local government area have been assessed to determine which sites may be suitable for the pilot. The recommended sites are based on:
Accessibility
Suitability for installation of EV charging equipment, and
Locations the community would likely use them.
To find out more about the pilot locations and the outcome from the community feedback, check out the Engagement Overview from 2024, the findings from the check-in of the pilot in September 2025.
