ABOUT US

The Electric Vehicle Council is the national body representing the electric vehicle industry in Australia. As the market is emerging in Australia, our work is particularly aimed at increasing certainty for investment through policy, knowledge sharing and education.

OUR MISSION

Accelerate the electrification of road transport

Through our efforts, the transition to electric vehicles and its benefits have become a household discussion in Australia and the issue sits squarely on the agenda of every government across the country.

With an entrepreneurial domestic sector, Australia stands to become a global powerhouse in the electric vehicle industry.
