ZEVIP funding for 122 recipients and more than 8,000 chargers, with $7.2 million for 30 EV education projects, will complement the previously announced $1.5 billion in loans for Charging and Hydrogen Refuelling Infrastructure Initiative

Lessons from the ZEVAI pilot stream for Indigenous-led projects are helping NRCan strengthen partnerships and find opportunities for improvements

Up to $300,000 will be awarded to projects focused on EV charging and clean fuels, with NRCan’s call for proposals open until April 30

The Manitoba Motor Dealer Association will distribute the NRCan funding to provincial organizations wanting to install public electric vehicle charging stations

If Canada wants an equitable transition to a cleaner future with Indigenous peoples, some changes are needed in the funding programs that help communities adopt ZEV technology
