As communities embrace electric vehicles, safety must remain at the forefront when considering infrastructure requirements. EV charging stations safety must be discussed and mitigated where safety risk is identified. Join us as we explore how to assess the safety of your EV infrastructure, so that future planning for EV readiness includes safety considerations.

Transitioning to electric vehicles has been touted by manufacturers as a means of saving fuel costs, less reactive maintenance and a lower risk of mechanical failure. However, Bodies Corporate need to carefully consider any new risks presented if planning to provide infrastructure to recharge EV’s and decide what control measures they can and should implement.

This week we are eager to announce our expert EV Safety panellist who will speak at our upcoming education seminars across Queensland. Future infrastructure requirements for communities adopting EV’s and the known safety risks associated including charging stations and how can they be mitigated are key areas to be discussed.
