Ku-ring-gai Council has installed 21 new kerbside EV charging ports across Sydney’s north, giving drivers without off-street parking more places to plug in.

The ports were funded through the second round of the NSW Government’s $2.8 million EV Kerbside Charging Grants program, which is supporting installations across 22 local government areas. The locations were announced earlier this year.

The chargers were installed and are being operated by a charge point operator unnamed in the Council’s announcement, but checking their locations against available charging locations on Plug Share indicates that the majority of the new chargers are being operated by AGL EV Charging.

The partnership installed 149 chargers in 2025 and announced plans for another 108 earlier this year.

Plus ES was also one of the five recipients of funding from the second round of the EV Kerbside Charging Grants program.

The 21 new kerbside charging ports are spread across the locations listed below, most of them near the Pacific Highway between Roseville and Gordon.

Mayor Kim Wheatley, said that the new ports would make owning an EV more practical, particularly for residents without off-street parking.

“Not everyone has a garage or driveway where they can plug in at home, and that can be a real barrier to buying an electric vehicle,” said Wheatley.

“Putting chargers on the street where people already park means more residents can make the switch with confidence. It’s a practical step toward our goal of net zero and I’m pleased Council has been able to work with the NSW Government to deliver this important infrastructure.”
