Electric Vehicles

Switching your organisation’s vehicle fleet to electric vehicles reduces your carbon emissions, energy costs, and has a wide range of other benefits. 

In Australia, it has been found that an electric vehicle currently emits, on average, 29-41% less emissions than a typical fossil-fuelled car for every kilometre driven. This depends on which state you live in and the particular energy generation mix in that state. Carbon emissions from electric vehicles will continue to fall as more and more renewable energy is connected to the grid. You can reduce carbon emissions even further by using solar power from your organisation’s own solar panels. 

Electric Vehicles Funding For Non Profits

CORENA works with a wide range of not for profits, social enterprises and community organisations, many of which use vehicles in their operations. These might include delivery vans or trucks, vehicles for home visits or staff use or even buses for transporting clients. 

CORENA provides free technical advice and a zero interest loan to community organisations looking to green their transport fleets. The current FBT exemption and rebates means many non profits can also make significant savings compared to their current fleet.
