The NSW Government is determined to take action on climate change while continuing to grow our economy. That is why the NSW Government has committed to reach net zero emissions by 2050 with a plan to achieve this by creating new jobs, reducing household costs, and attracting investment to NSW.
In 2021, the NSW Government launched the NSW Electric Vehicle Strategy to make NSW the easiest and most affordable place to buy and operate an electric vehicle (EV) in Australia.
The transport sector is currently the state’s second largest source of CO2 emissions and is predicted to become the state’s leading source of emissions by 2035. It was responsible for 20% of all NSW emissions in 2020 and 89% of these emissions were from road transport. Half of the road transport emissions came from passenger vehicles. Reducing transport emissions is therefore crucial to meeting our net zero target.
