Workplace EV charging has become one of the more cost-effective staff benefits going — genuinely useful to the growing number of employees driving electric, and backed by tax advantages and grant funding that make it cheaper than it looks.
Why employers are adding it
- Attract and keep staff. Charging at work is a real perk for EV drivers and a visible sign of a modern, sustainable employer.
- The FBT angle. Where staff drive EVs on novated leases, the federal FBT exemption can be worth up to around $11,000 a year each — and home or workplace charging equipment can often be packaged in.
- ESG that's actually used. Unlike a lot of sustainability spend, workplace chargers are visible and used every day.
Getting it right
The practical questions are the same as any commercial site: does your supply support the chargers you want, how do you bill staff (or offer it free), and how do you leave room to add more later. Smart load management and a staged plan handle all three, and NSW workplace and destination charging grants can offset the cost.
Our EV-Ready Plan checks your power, your grants and your growth plan before a dollar is spent on hardware — so you don't over-build or miss funding. Then we manage the install end to end.
