To be honest, the Vic gov (or any state government) doesn't need to mandate the adoption of EVs by 2030. All they need to do is nothing - by 2030, no car manufacturers will be producing pure ICE vehicles, and given we don't make any cars here and import pretty much 100% of our fleet, Australia will become a "passenger" on the EV uptake tidal wave... i.e. you literally won't be able to buy a new pure ICE car in Australia after 2030 anyway.

Best thing the Gov's can do is concentrate on charging infra and more innovative ways of replacing the current fuel excise.

Powerage.
