Since some 36% of diesel is used off-road, such as on farms, by manufacturing, industrial and commercial ventures, and boats, a fuel tax for road use would impose an unfair burden onto these sectors, the government says.). Removing supplementary licences and time licences will also result in compliance cost savings.

kWh Pricing State Policies Transitioning to kWh pricing for EV charging stations offers several benefits, such as more precise pricing based on actual energy use and real-time data for EV owners to monitor their charging sessions, allowing them to make cost-saving adjustments. However, this transition also involves policy changes.
