ENGIE Australia & New Zealand today received Federal Government funding to support the development of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in four states.
Under the Australian Renewable Energy Agency’s Future Fuels Fund, ENGIE will build more than 100 charging stations in regions where more than 80% of all Australian car journeys occur.
This will eliminate about 50,000 tonnes of CO2 over the next decade and will enable Australians to safely, quickly and conveniently top up their EVs.
