For over 50 years, the AEVA has kept its finger on the pulse of electric transport. From battery developments to public policy, our association has provided informed opinion on matters, based on the best scientific evidence and our own experience.

In May 2023, AEVA drafted a discussion paper, setting out what is effectively a policy manifesto; identifying key issues around electric transport in Australia, and how best to advance full electrification of transport in the fairest, most impactful way possible. This document has served as a focal point for ongoing policy consultation with AEVA members and experts in their respective fields. 

Following the establishment of a Policy Advocacy Working Group in early 2024, comprising of representatives from all eight state and territory AEVA branches, a series of revised and refined policy statements are being developed.
