Working with all stakeholders across the sector, from OEMs to Banks, big Retail, Government and of course consumers, the EVC of Australia is a leading force in pushing change forward in a country that has huge opportunities for an electrified future.
This podcast is a fascinating insight into some of the challenges and triumphs Behyad and his team have faced in their mission to accelerate the uptake of EVs in Australia
