Transitioning fleet vehicles

In line with the State EV Strategy, this guide to EVs provides fleet managers information about the features and benefits of EVs particularly in the context of WA.

The Charge up Workplace Grant scheme, administered by Energy Policy WA, is designed to assist non-for-profit organisations, businesses and local government authorities to install EV-charging equipment at their workplace. EV chargers can be installed in car parks for use of employees or visitors, or customers at eligible businesses (e.g. cafes and wineries).

From 1 July 2022, employers do not pay FBT on eligible EVs and associated car expenses, which can make adding EVs to your fleet cost competitive over a petrol or diesel car.

For guidance and rulings on EV home-charging rates and how to calculate electricity costs when charging a vehicle at an employee's or individual's home, visit the Australian Taxation Office.
