82、tems for EVs.202215AUSTRALIAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE INDUSTRY RECAP A fuel efficiency standard consists of a series of yearly targets for new vehicles sold by car makers,based on their tailpipe emissions.Each car maker needs to meet these targets based on the average emissions of new vehicles they sell ea

83、ch year,otherwise they risk paying large penalties to the government.In other countries that already have a fuel efficiency standard,these penalties can be significant,sometimes in the tens or hundreds of millions of dollars.To minimise the chance of paying a penalty,car makers need to sell more fue

84、l-efficient vehicles,particularly zero emission vehicles like electric vehicles,to reduce the average tailpipe emissions of all the new vehicles that they sell.This is why countries that have a fuel efficiency standard are prioritised for the supply of electric vehicles,and countries that dont have

85、a fuel efficiency standard like Australia are at the back of the queue.The critical need for an ambitious fuel efficiency standard in AustraliaThe number one barrier to getting more electric vehicles(EVs)onto Australian roads today is the low supply of EVs to our market.There are hundreds of EV mode

86、ls available overseas,and yet only are fraction of these are being supplied to Australia.Australia is not receiving more EVs mainly because we do not have a regulation called a Fuel Efficiency Standard.We support the Australian Government introducing a Fuel Efficiency Standard as soon as possible,so

87、 many more EVs and fuel-efficient vehicles are brought to our country for all Australians to benefit from.What is a fuel efficiency standard?Cg/km202216AUSTRALIAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE INDUSTRY RECAP Is a fuel efficiency standard the only policy Australia needs to accelerate the uptake of electric vehicl

88、es?How long will it take for the supply of electric vehicles to increase if a fuel efficiency standard is introduced in Australia?No,a fuel efficiency standard does not ban any particular type of vehicle.Car makers can continue to sell whichever types of vehicles they want.What is important is that

89、they ensure the average emissions rate of all the new vehicles they sell each year meets the fuel efficiency target set by the government.New Zealand has only recently introduced a fuel efficiency standard that targets 63.3 g/km CO2 by 2027 for passenger cars,and 87.2 g/km CO2 for light commercial v

90、ehicles.Even prior to it starting the country has seen an initial increase in the supply of electric vehicle models.In the case of Australia,we expect there will be a modest increase at the beginning of a fuel efficiency standard,but assuming the targets are ambitious enough to catch up to the US,Eu

91、rope and New Zealand in the next few years,we then expect that the supply of EVs will start to accelerate significantly.It is important to recognise that it takes a few years for car makers to adjust supply,so while the impact is not immediate,this policy is critical for ensuring Australia does rece

92、ive a strong supply of electric vehicles as soon as possible.In addition to fuel efficiency targets,Australia should also introduce a strong package of nationally consistent incentives,worth up to$10,000 to reduce the upfront cost of purchasing an EV,and stimulate demand.The Australian Government ha

93、s already introduced its electric car discount,which will particularly support fleets in adopting electric vehicles,and create a strong second-hand market for EVs when these are sold in the 3-4 years time.Other incentives should be considered in addition to a fuel efficiency standard to support all

94、Australians in making the switch to an EV,and consider options to enable an equitable transition to an EV fleet.Does a fuel efficiency standard ban certain types of vehicles?202217AUSTRALIAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE INDUSTRY RECAP In collaboration with Boundless,the Australia Institute and the Smart Energy

95、Council the inaugural National EV Summit was held in Canberra on 19 August 2022,with leaders across governments and industry coming together to discuss the future of transport in Australia.A particular focus of the summit was the important role that a fuel efficiency standard will play in ensuring w

97、CEO,Electric Vehicle CouncilWe know that especially today,Australian families are struggling more than ever before with the rising cost of petrol bills.According to the AAA,petrol bills for families have reached,on average,over a hundred dollars for the first time ever.And theres only really one sus

98、tainable and consistent way for us to help reduce families petrol bills.Thats by helping them use less of it in the first place,or in the case of electric vehicles,use none of it at all.The rest of the developed world has introduced for quite some time now very strict fuel efficiency standards or ve

99、hicle emission standards that encourage car makers to take their latest and best technologies to their markets first and deprioritise Australia.Weve calculated the value of these standards in a market like the European Union.Selling an electric vehicle in that market helps a car company avoid penalt

100、ies to the tune of about$15,000 in Australian dollars(per vehicle).So theres a very clear economic incentive for car companies to sell their electric vehicles to those markets.Australia now has a government that gets it,but this is just the beginning.Its not enough.We need collaboration not only acr

101、oss government,but across governments and across society to deal with the challenges and opportunities that are presented by climate change.And on behalf of the new government,I welcome your ideas and engagement and passion on electric vehicles and on so much more.To me,this is ultimately about choi

102、ce,freedom of choice.And Australian policy settings are denying Australians real choice of good,affordable,no-emissions cars.In fact,when asked,more than one in two people said they would consider buying an electric vehicle as their next car.While were behind the pack,Australians are missing out,and

103、 without federal leadership,Australians will continue to miss out.Apart from Russia,Australia is the only OECD country not to have or be in the process of developing fuel efficiency standards.The lack of standards in Australia is cited as one of the key factors impacting on the supply of EVs into Au

104、stralia.Why?Because while Australia doesnt show leadership,manufacturers will prioritise those markets that do.Its pretty simple.It means that consumers arent getting the choice available internationally,and as the world moves to more efficient and cleaner cars,we risk becoming even more of a dumpin

105、g ground for older technology which cant be sold in other markets.Hon Chris Bowen Minister for Energy and Climate ChangeThe problem is right now we are far behind the rest of the world.Our Fuel Efficiency Standards cannot be a step forward from where we are today,they have to catch up to where the r

106、est of the world is.We have to make that leap to catch up to where they are.We need to be on par with the rest of the world.Our friends across the ditch in New Zealand have gone from 3%to 10%in a bit over a year.So we know that that leap is entirely possible.Mike Cannon-Brookes CEO,AtlassianWeve got

107、 to catch up to the rest of the world quickly,as quickly as humanly possible.So having a Fuel Efficiency Standard that doesnt get us close to meeting the European or U.S.standards doesnt cut it.Having that ambition of a global leading standard or at least in keeping with the global leaders is really

108、,really important.But to me,what we cant accept is the worlds dirtiest cars in Australia and thats what we have today and thats increasing.Robyn Denholm Chair,Tesla202219AUSTRALIAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE INDUSTRY RECAP Kylie Tink MP Member for North SydneyConsistent across the crossbench is our very firm

115、laboration thats been quite effective at a state and territory government level,although not perfect,to have a willing partner in the Commonwealth to work towards a national EV strategy.Weve talked about legislation to phase out the sale of internal combustion vehicles.Weve obviously led with 2035.I

116、d like to see other jurisdictions follow that and that become a national position,and clearly we need to develop nationally consistent approaches to road user charging reforms to replace the fuel excise.Hon Tom Koutsantonis MP Minister for Infrastructure and Transport,SAI am very concerned about the

117、 patchwork of policies around electric vehicles across the entire nation.We are burdening our constituents with a patchwork of policy that will mean that our constituents will be paying more,and get poorer quality outcomes from the transition to electric vehicles.We need consistent national policy,a

118、nd thats what were arguing for.Hon Mark Bailey MPMinister for Transport and Main Roads,QLDIm really heartened to see the commitments from Chris Bowen,and I had meetings with Catherine King when the transport Minister was in Brisbane.Obviously,decarbonisation was a key thing we discussed at the Natio

121、d is currently coping with record floods through one of our cities,Nelson,and we continue to experience extreme weather events across all parts of the country.And so its abundantly clear to us that the climate crisis is not a future threat,it is a current reality,and that reminds us of the need for

122、urgent action.I met with Catherine(King)when I was in Australia last month,who indicated that theyre looking at consultation on an EV strategy and a fuel efficiency standard for Australia.So great to see our partners and the Australian Government also really beginning to make progress in this area a

123、s well.Cr Linda Scott President,Australian Local Government AssociationFor so many years now,local governments have been providing local leadership in very different ways across the nation.Some local governments have set up their own charging structures to ensure that residents can make the transiti

124、on.In regional areas,local governments have been working very hard to incentivise their communities to make the transition through the way that they charge for their parking permits,or the way that they permit street parking,or the way that we provide benefits for our public spaces generally.Having

125、a national goal to lock in behind,and then incentivise our communities in all those different ways to make that transition,is really the critical thing.RT Hon Alok Sharma MP COP 26 PresidentBush fires,heat waves,droughts,and tropical storms,are becoming much more common,too.And communities,businesse

126、s,and governments,across Australia are left having to deal with the costs.And that is why I also met with ministers to discuss your governments plans,to reduce emissions by 43%by 2030.That is a good start.And we spoke about the big push on renewables and climate finance.And I particularly enjoyed be
