Subsidies available for electric vehicles (EVs)

To support South Australia’s shift towards electric vehicles, there are various incentives offered by both the state and federal governments. More info below:

Tariffs

Depending on your lifestyle and priorities, you may save money if you switch to Time of Use tariff.  With a Time of Use electricity tariff: 

• EVs can be charged overnight at the cheaper off-peak rate.  
• Solar sponge tariffs provide an additional super off-peak period in the middle of the day. 

Not sure if Time of Use is right for you? The Australian Government's Energy Made Easy website lets you search and compare energy offers to find the best deal for you.
