The NSW Government announced investing $20 million to assist eligible regional NSW businesses and councils by co-funding the purchase and installation of EV chargers at their site.   

The NSW Government has committed to reach net zero emissions by 2050 with a plan to achieve this!

Therefore there has been a grant of $20 million provided by the government. The first $10million was exhausted within they first round of funding, hence the government noticed the success and launched an additional $10million.

Under the grants, a destination charger refers to 7kW or 22kW AC electric vehicle chargers. These are to be installed at popular tourism businesses allowing EV drivers to charge while spending time at the tourist location. A destination is a location that supports the NSW visitor economy and can be publicly or privately owned.
