Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has announced plans to encourage people to buy electric vehicles but won't be subsidizing the purchases. Morrison says the price of the technology will reduce in time.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the price of the technology would reduce in time and offered no subsidies to buyers of electric cars.
“Our plans aren’t about sending a lot of taxpayers’ money off to big multinationals to get costs down. They’ll do that themselves. They’ve a keen interest in doing that,” he added. Less than 2% of new vehicles sold in Australia are electric, and the transport sector is a major reason why Australia, on a per capita basis, is one of the world’s worst greenhouse gas emitters.Electric Vehicles Council chief executive Behyad Jafari, an advocate for the electric vehicle industry in Australia, described the policy as a “fizzer” that lacked initiatives to boost uptake.
Morrison argued at the time that Labor’s policy would “end the weekend” because electric vehicles could not tow boats and caravans or replace SUVs.
