We're working with Waverley and Randwick councils to support electric vehicle charging. The three councils adopted the Eastern Suburbs Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Strategy 2023 and as part of that strategy we identified that 250 public EV chargers were needed in the Eastern Suburbs by the end of 2025

We recognise more chargers are needed to meet growing numbers of EVs on our roads.

There are currently 4,000 electric vehicles registered in Waverley, Woollahra, and Randwick LGAs. This is projected to increase to 10,000 by 2025, and to more than 35,000 by 2030.

To cater to the demand, we need more than 250 new public electric vehicle chargers in Randwick, Waverley, and Woollahra by the end of 2025.

There are currently 57 EV chargers across Woollahra, Waverley and Randwick LGAs, 15 of which are in Woollahra LGA.

In round one (August 2024) we sought feedback on 35 locations for new public EV chargers across Woollahra, Waverley and Randwick and 11 of those were in the Woollahra LGA.

We are now seeking feedback on 45 proposed new locations across Woollahra, Waverley and Randwick and 15 of those are in the Woollahra LGA.

View the proposed locations for new EV chargers and provide feedback.

The types of chargers include privately-operated EVIE, EVX and PLUS ES; and Council chargers.

All chargers would be available for public use.

The chargers will be funded through the NSW Local Small Commitments Allocation Grants (LSCA), NSW Government Kerbside Charging Grants, and private sector investment.

Your feedback on the proposed locations for EV chargers will help us meet the increasing demand in our local area. New EV chargers are expected to be installed by June 2025.
