What is being proposed?

Two experienced EV Charge Point Operators (CPOs) — ChargePost and Plus ES — have received NSW Government funding to install on-street pole-mounted chargers across Ku-ring-gai.

On-street EV charging refers to chargers accessible from the street and are installed on power poles.

These chargers will:

  • Be fully funded by NSW Government and CPO Operators — no cost to Council or ratepayers
  • Operate on a user-pays model, with prices set by the provider
  • Be located in areas where people typically park for 2+ hours
  • Be installed in existing public parking spaces

Why is this project happening?

Electric vehicle ownership is growing rapidly across Ku-ring-gai, with many residents making the switch to cleaner, more efficient transport. As of July 2025, more than 1 in 20 vehicles in Ku-ring-gai are now electric – more than three times the state average. However, not everyone has access to home charging — especially:

  • Apartment or townhouse residents
  • Renters without garage access
  • Households with only on-street parking
  • Visitors to the area
