AutoExec Summary
The Australian federal government is conducting a national inquiry into the benefits and challenges of transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs). The inquiry aims to address issues that could affect the growth of EVs, such as infrastructure, skills shortages in the automotive industry, and the impact on the environment and electricity consumption. The inquiry has received over 135 public submissions from industry bodies and individuals. The House of Representatives Standing Committee on Climate Change, Energy, Environment and Water is conducting public hearings in major cities, with the aim of informing their report later this year. The committee is also exploring opportunities for EV battery manufacturing and recycling in Australia.
