DRIVEN Charger Rebate Stream

The Australian Government is supporting the automotive sector to sell, service and repair more electric vehicles by providing rebates for EV chargers.

This program provides eligible applicants, including Dealers who meet the eligibility criteria, with rebates for EV charging equipment purchased on or after 26 March 2024.

The Rebate Stream guidelines for the Dealership and Repairer Initiative for Vehicle Electrification Nationally (DRIVEN) Program, are now available for automotive dealerships and EV repairers to view.
 
The Rebate Stream will open on 22 January 2025.

The rebate is capped at $20,000 per eligible dealership site. You can apply to receive this rebate for any number of plugs, up to the cap. However, you can only receive a rebate under the program once, per each eligible site.

You can receive up to $20,000 for each of the automotive manufacturers you sell from the eligible site (i.e. for each of the franchise agreements that apply to your showroom) and a separate application will need to be made for each.

Please note that the Business Grants Hub contact centre will be unattended from 25/12/2024 – 01/01/2025 inclusive.
