Governments at every level are grappling with overlapping priorities: the urgent need to decarbonize, the pressure to expand housing supply and the growing demand for accessible transportation – all within the context of shrinking household budgets. How can we address these challenges simultaneously? This session explores the practical steps municipalities and other key players can take to align these interconnected goals, and why integrated policy design is essential to lasting progress. From EV-ready building codes to innovative shared mobility models and equitable access to charging infrastructure, panelists will discuss how cities can break down silos to build communities that are livable, low-carbon and affordable by default.
Vancouver and Toronto are at the forefront of municipal fleet electrification, setting bold targets and crafting ambitious strategic plans. This session dives into how they’re planning for capital, scaling infrastructure, and managing organizational change to drive progress. Hear firsthand how they’re navigating both the shift in vehicle technology and the workforce adaptation required to be successful. Gain actionable insights from the playbook of these leading cities to apply to your own municipal fleet electrification strategy.
How do we get charging up and running at depots more effectively? Three industry leaders share strategies for speeding up interconnections and using novel solutions to get electric vehicles on the road. You’ll also learn how to manage your charging infrastructure so that you’re right-sizing interconnection and capacity requests.
Cities play a critical role in driving ev adoption in many ways, but none may be more important than providing plugs where and when drivers need them most. How do cities balance today’s needs with future adoption, and balance their budgets? This session brings together leading municipal voices to explore real-world strategies for forecasting demand, ensuring neighbourhoods have equitable access and providing both curbside and off-road charging infrastructure at the right density. From streamlining permitting and coordinating with utilities to leveraging private sector investment and structuring fair pricing and funding models, this discussion will equip municipalities with the tools to build scalable, accessible, and cost-effective charging networks that support their decarbonization goals.
Is your organization ready to transition to an electric fleet? Join industry leaders for an in-depth seminar on the essential steps for electrifying commercial fleets, based on real-world case studies and the latest operational learnings. Discover actionable strategies and get practical advice from experts who have successfully guided both public and private organizations through the shift to zero-emission vehicles.
Carbon credits can be an important revenue stream for fleet charging owners, site hosts and chargepoint operators. This seminar will provide an overview of the compliance market in Canada and the US, and a forecast for where the market will trend in the years ahead. You’ll also learn about voluntary credit markets that are providing novel ROI opportunities for electric freight carriers.
Emterra’s fleet of Mack electric refuse trucks are now serving over 25,000 households in BC and Ontario. With frequent stops and high idling, garbage trucks are a great example of heavy-duty vehicles that are suitable for electrification or hybrid technologies. Listen to our expert panel discuss their experience in deploying some of the first electric waste collection trucks in Canada, including real talk around range, dos and don’ts when choosing routes, and what the data is telling us from these first projects.
As we look to build out robust charging infrastructure for moving goods, innovative ports have become key hubs to enable electrification. From fast-charging for freight trucks to electric cargo handling equipment and battery storage onsite, ports are prime examples of leadership in the zero-emissions transition. Come hear from experts with lessons that can apply to fleet and terminal operators, as well as those looking to install charging infrastructure suitable for heavy-duty vehicles or ensuring resiliency of operations in power outages.
Norway is known for its robust fast-charging network, but the real backbone of its electric vehicle success (a staggering 89% of new car sales last year) lies in the widespread use of Level 2 charging at home, at work and in shared spaces. This panel examines how the right mix of AC and DC charging has proven to be more economical, grid-friendly and reliable for residents, fleets and public charging providers alike. What bold policy moves, smart infrastructure funding and behind-the-scenes strategies powered Norway’s mainstreaming of electric vehicles – and how can Canada learn from its Nordic cousins to accelerate the switch to zero-emissions?
