An environmental organisation in the Macedon Ranges has slammed the state and federal government’s lack of incentives for Australians wishing to transition to electric vehicles.
Macedon Ranges Sustainability Group president David Gormley-O’Brien said Australia is falling behind the rest of the world and that an opportunity is being missed in not embracing the new technology.
“There’s a reticence from the federal government, there’s really no incentive to purchase an electric vehicle,” Mr Gormley-O’Brien said.
“In other countries, there are generous rebates for purchasing electric vehicles, you can receive tax exemptions, and there are a greater number of charging stations to reduce range anxiety.
