As the electric vehicle (EV) market continues to gain momentum, Australians are being urged to accelerate plans for widespread charging infrastructure. With the federal government's commitment to banning new fossil fuel-powered cars by 2035, the demand for EVs is expected to skyrocket, but experts warn that the country's charging network is not yet equipped to handle the surge. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation reports that a major expansion of charging points is now essential to prevent a "range anxiety" crisis, where drivers fear running out of power on long trips. With EV sales already on the rise, the clock is ticking for policymakers to get on board with a comprehensive charging strategy.
