Project Purpose

Council is delivering its third EV charging rollout for the installation of public kerbside charging stations.

Council is proposing 25 sites for community feedback. From this engagement, thirteen sites will be installed by June 2026, while the remaining 12 will be shortlisted to inform future installations.

This rollout supports Council’s goals in our Environment and Resilience Strategy 2024–2032 and our commitment to a sustainable transport future by reducing emissions, encouraging EV adoption, and providing practical charging solutions for residents and our visitors.

Additional Information


By strategically installing charging stations, the project aims to enhance local infrastructure while aligning with Council’s environmental and sustainability goals, as previously embraced during the 2023 trial program, funded by the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA).

The objective of this project is to collaborate with private operators to expand EV kerbside charging infrastructure across the entire LGA, ensuring accessible and convenient charging solutions for the community.


Below are the installation outcomes from the 2025 EV Rollout:

February 2026 City Services Committee Meeting

At the February 2026 City Services Committee Meeting, Council agreed to install another 13 kerbside EV chargers in addition to the charging locations selected from the last 2025 EV engagement. You can read the minutes pertaining to this item here.

The 13 sites will be approved from the list of 25 proposed locations. Consultation is now open via this project page.

Council staff are now delivering the project in line with that recommendation.

Location Selection of Chargers

The selection of charger locations has been carefully guided by a set of key criteria to ensure the rollout is effective, equitable, and minimally disruptive. These criteria include but not limited to:

  • Suitable access to an existing electricity supply.
  • Personal safety of end users in areas of high surveillance.
  • Existing car parking availability
  • Minimal impact on car parking availability for non-EVs.
  • Proximity to a range of amenities such as parks, beaches, tourist areas, public transport, active transport, business precents, community and public facilities.
  • Accessibility at all hours with adequate lighting.

These charging stations will have allocated ‘EV while charging only’ spaces. The following parking restrictions will apply: Monday to Sunday, 6am-6pm, 2-4 hour parking limit. Meaning all parking outside of this time will be available to non-EV charging

All locations have been selected carefully to minimise disruption, where possible, as per Bayside’s Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Policy 2024.


This program is funded by the NSW Government’s EV kerbside charging infrastructure fund - Round 2, and contribution fund from private charging operators. This covers the cost for the installation of all EV charging units.
