New NSW EV Fast Chargers: “Fast Chargers on the Way for NSW Drivers”:
Scope & Funding
-
The NSW Government’s latest Fast Charging Infrastructure grants (third round) will deliver over 300 new fast-charging ports at 103 locations statewide, backed by $16.1 million in public funding — part of a broader $149 million commitment to reach 1,000+ fast bays by 2025. 
-
In parallel, a ministerial media release details 246 fast and ultra-fast chargers to be installed across 38 suburbs, with the same $16.1 million in grants boosted by $25.1 million in private co-investment (BP, Energy Australia, Plus ES, Tesla, NRMA) for a $41.2 million total rollout. 
Partners & Locations
- Key network partners include BP, Evie, Tesla, NRMA, Energy Australia and Plus ES, ensuring broad geographic reach across metro and regional NSW. 
- The ministerial release specifically names 38 suburbs , while the NRMA announcement covers 103 locations selected to close “critical charging gaps.” 
Charger Specifications & Accessibility
- Both programs focus on fast (50–150 kW) and ultra-fast (up to 350 kW+) chargers, capable of replenishing 10 → 80% battery in 10–15 minutes, dramatically reducing “range anxiety.” 
- Installations will include pull-through bays for caravans/trailers and disability-accessible chargers to accommodate a wide range of users. 
Strategic Goals & Impact
- These investments accelerate NSW’s transition to EVs, support the state’s Net Zero targets, and encourage wider adoption by making long-distance travel and everyday charging more convenient and reliable.  
“We are already seeing the benefits of NSW Government investment here in Heathcote where today I have cut a ribbon to celebrate BP’s newest EV charging station, making it easier for EV drivers to hit the road quickly.” said Member for Heathcote, Maryanne Stuart at a BP charging station launch in Heathcote.
With over 300 new ports rolling out under matched funding streams, NSW drivers can look forward to a vastly expanded, fast-charging network powered by renewable energy, paving the way for seamless EV travel across the state.
