NSW EV Fleet Charging Infrastructure Prequalification Scheme
The New South Wales (NSW) government has announced the launch of the Electric Vehicle (EV) Fleet Charging Infrastructure Prequalification Scheme, inviting applications from companies seeking to be prequalified to deliver EV charging infrastructure. The scheme, which will be open for an initial term of three years, is part of the government’s commitment to transitioning its fleet of passenger vehicles to electric by 2030. Achieving this target will require EV charging infrastructure to be set up at vehicle base locations such as government sites and depots.
The scheme is open to companies with experience in delivering EV charging infrastructure, including EV chargers, load management controllers, and other hardware. Applicants must have a current Supplier Hub profile on the buy.nsw website and must accept the scheme’s conditions and satisfy all requirements as a condition of prequalification. Prequalification under the scheme does not guarantee work or receipt of opportunities to make submissions, and engagements or work of any kind or quantity will not be offered.
The NSW government has set out goals to have 50% of newly purchased or leased passenger vehicles to be electric by 2026, and 100% of newly purchased or leased passenger vehicles to be electric by 2030. This is part of the government’s broader NSW Electric Vehicle Strategy, which aims to accelerate the uptake of EVs in the state. The prequalification scheme is an important step in achieving these targets and presents an exciting opportunity for businesses offering EV charging solutions.
Companies interested in applying for prequalification under the scheme can find more information on the buy.nsw website. Enquiries can be directed to the scheme manager via email at NSWGFleetElectrification@treasury.nsw.gov.au or by phone on 1800-679-289.
