  • 3:00 PM  - 3:30 PM
    Driven by a mission to make electric vehicle travel possible across remote northern Manitoba, this talk shares the story of building a First Nations-led EV charging network from Winnipeg to Thompson – a close to 800 km route, with chargers strategically placed every 200-300 km. Learn how community partnerships and creative problem-solving brought high-speed chargers to these Indigenous communities at no cost. Kent Heinrich will walk you through hard-won lessons from installations at Grand Rapids, Fairford and other First Nations communities, including how to tackle utility upgrades and other grid challenges, curtail demand charges and solve for internet connectivity and oongoing maintenance, with insights applicable to other remote and underserved locations far beyond Manitoba.
