🙌 #ICYMI: #CITMinnovator Kiwi Charge recently presented their autonomous charger at the Ontario Vehicle Innovation Network (OVIN) Demonstration Zone! Abdel Ali, MBA, CFA, Founder and CEO of Kiwi Charge, created an autonomous charging solution after he saw a gap in the EV charging solutions available at multi-tenant buildings. The idea is to have a smart, autonomous, self-charging robot that can efficiently charge EVs in a designated parking lot without any human intervention. ⚡The team's unique solution was successfully demonstrated at the #OVIN Demonstration Zone! 💡Find out more about how they did it and what's next: https://loom.ly/Zfj1N8Q #Innovation #Transportation #Mobility #Autonomous #EV #Ontario

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA)'s 2024 Global EV Outlook, globally there are almost ten times as many private chargers as public ones, with the majority of current EV charging taking place at home. The availability of charging varies widely between regions - however in Canada 80% of EV owners have a home charger. Despite the recent headlines about the Tesla Supercharging layoffs and wider rollout of DC fast charging infrastructure, the reality is that most charging takes place on Level 2 chargers for vehicles parked at home, work, or other convenient locations. With the average vehicle parked for 95% of the time, most charging can easily take place at a much slower rate - meaning that low-cost Level 1 and Level 2 charging is a practical way to improve #EV adoption and usage around the world. https://lnkd.in/eK5Hgy47 #electricvehicles #charging

🔲 F1000 Media: Ford Motor Company Accelerates EV and Hybrid Strategy for 2024 and Beyond 🔳 Ford is continuing its transformation into a leader in the EV and hybrid space, announcing updated plans to overhaul its Oakville Assembly Plant into an advanced EV manufacturing complex. Ford’s electrification strategy includes introducing three-row electric vehicles by 2027, part of the company’s shift to meet consumer demand for long-range, cost-effective electric trucks and vans. 🔳 Additionally, Ford is advancing its #BlueOval City project, which will house state-of-the-art manufacturing for future EV models, including an all-new electric truck slated for delivery in 2026. The Tennessee Electric Vehicle Center will also mark Ford’s first Industry 4.0 plant, setting new standards for automation and manufacturing efficiency. #Ford #EV #Hybrid #BlueOvalCity #Sustainability #F1000Media #ElectricVehicles #AutomotiveInnovation

Toronto’s ability to meet its #electricvehicle (EV) targets is crucial—not just for hitting climate goals, but for tapping into a fast-growing global market. As the EV revolution accelerates, governments at all levels are making substantial investments in EV and battery manufacturing, adjusting policies to encourage private investment in the supply chain, and streamlining EV charging installation. As the Board's Jeremy Piamonte says in our latest Policy Insights blog, the region faces a clear risk-reward scenario: failure to act quickly could result in missed opportunities, while embracing the shift positions Toronto to reap significant economic and environmental benefits. What do business, consumers and government need to do? Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gd6gp_RM

The overall decline reflects a drop in battery electric vehicle registrations nationally to 8.2 per cent, compared to 9 per cent in Q4, while plug-in hybrid registrations held steady at 3 per cent, according to Statistics Canada | Statistique Canada. #ElectricVehicles #EVRegistrations #BatteryElectricVehicles https://lnkd.in/ebTYscUW

Canada's national incentives program—and a national policy more consistently supportive of battery electric vehicles (#BEVs)—all contribute to EV adoption. However, provincial-level incentives also seem to drive regional adoption, with Quebec consistently accounting for most EV registrations in #Canada.

💲 FLO gets more DOUGH 💲 FLO has secured $136 million in long-term capital, led by Export Development Canada (EDC), marking the largest financing round in FLOs history. This investment will fuel FLOs growth across the U.S. and Canada, enabling the deployment of reliable EV charging infrastructure and launch new products. This year, we are excited to launch two major products: ⚡ The FLO Ultra charger: Charges most new EVs to 80% in just 15 minutes with 320kW of power. 🏠 The next generation of FLO Home chargers: Offering three flexible options, including J3400 (NACS) or J1772 connectors, and power options up to 19.2 kW (80A).

In 2016, we came up with the bold idea of getting competitor electric bus manufacturers in Canada (New Flyer Industries in Manitoba and Nova Bus in Quebec) to work with charging systems importers of technology (ABB in Quebec and Siemens in Ontario) to launch the continent's first-ever interoperability trial to showcase cutting edge high powered charging systems to support electrification of public transit. Not all public transit agencies will need high powered charging -- but many will. It's one tool in the toolbox of decarbonization and we want to take this opportunity to thank our manufacturing partners -- Canadian and international -- all of which absorbed losses to be able to get out in front and launch avant garde technologies in support of aggressive public transit decarbonization goals. Next steps? CUTRIC-CRITUC is now tracking dozens of battery electric buses and associated charging equipment from this project and other deployments in order to assess performance (in real-time and real life) compared to predicted performance. These types of performance measures will be the science-based evidence governments need to determine where taxpayer dollars are best spent in decarbonizing public transit over the long-term. Reach out anytime if you have questions about this deployment project -- CUTRIC-CRITUC's ACES CloudTransit ZEB Data Trust and the spin-off CUTZEB Electric Bus Joint Procurement initiative. https://lnkd.in/eB3F6smf City of Brampton Kamal Khera Maninder Sidhu Patrick Brown Volvo Group TransLink York Region Rapid Transit Corporation (vivaNext) Brampton (City of) Transit
