Livingstone Shire Council is actively advancing initiatives to enhance electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure within the region:
- Public EV Charging Infrastructure Tender: The Council issued an invitation to tender (2025.003) for the installation of public EV charging stations, with the tender closing on 11 March 2025. This initiative aims to provide fast-charging facilities to the public, with the installation and operation costs to be covered by the successful tenderer, ensuring no expenditure of ratepayer funds. citeturn0search1turn0search0
- Yeppoon CBD Charging Stations: In October 2024, the Council discussed plans to establish EV charging stations in the Yeppoon Central Business District. This project is intended to promote the benefits of EVs, attract EV tourism, and stimulate local economic growth by providing necessary infrastructure for EV users. citeturn0search3
Additionally, the Queensland Government offers a Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Rebate Scheme, providing rebates of up to $6,000 for eligible households and $3,000 for businesses purchasing EVs. citeturn0search2
