The Electric Vehicle Council has a new-look board to help guide the industry forward.
The board now comprises Jet Charge chief executive Tim Washington, NRMA chief executive Emma Harrington, Volkswagen Group managing director Paul Sansom, News Corp managing director John Lehmann, Tesla senior manager Sam McLean, Polestar managing director Samantha Johnson, Origin general manager Chau Le, SEA Electric vice president Glen Walker, Evie Networks chief executive Chris Mills, SGFleet corporate affairs head Yves Noldus, Ampol executive general manager Brent Merrick, and Volvo Group vice president Paul Illmer.
“I am thrilled by the calibre of board we have been able to assemble, and I think it speaks volumes about the exciting point our sector has now reached,” says EVC chief executive Behyad Jafari.
“Our work to date has driven EVs front and centre in the national discussion.
“The EVC has been able to grow and guide that evolution to become the preeminent industry association representing the modern mobility sector,” Jafari adds.
“Consumers are more interested in EVs than ever before as they look to save on fuel bills and do their part to reduce pollution in their communities.
“The future of EVs in Australia is looks much brighter than ever before, but also more complex and sophisticated. Meeting the needs of our industry today requires leaders from across the EV ecosystem and civil society working together. This new board, I believe, represents our readiness to embrace that challenge.”
