The purpose of the Low Emission Vehicles Contestable Fund (the Fund, or LEVCF) is to encourage innovation and investment that will accelerate the uptake of electric and other low-emission vehicles in New Zealand.

The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA) is seeking proposals to deliver projects that will lead to this outcome by contributing to at least one of the following objectives:
• Increasing the variety and supply of low emission vehicles available.
• Improving the availability of servicing or charging infrastructure in areas where demand is not fully developed.
• Increasing demand for low emission vehicles.
• Developing innovative products or systems to take advantage of growing electric vehicle use.

The Fund will offer up to 50% funding towards suitable projects that lead to the achievement of these objectives (larger proportions of funding will be considered by exception).

The Fund is intended to support a range of projects, including initial feasibility studies, small-scale, early-stage initiatives, and large-scale programmes of work.

The Fund will provide up to $4m in 2016/17 and up to $6 million per year after that.
