If the government's zero emissions target is to be met - we'll need another 1.5m low emission cars on our roads in the next 13 years.
So is our charging infrastructure up to the job? The government's goal is to have 30 percent of the light fleet made up of zero-emissions vehicles by 2035.
Right now - we're at a little over one per cent, or around 40,000 zero emission vehicles.
So as more New Zealanders switch to EVs - does the charging network also need to power up? Kathryn talks with Acting CEO and ChargeNet Director Damon Birchfield.
