This webinar will deliver a structured overview of EV charging station fundamentals, current funding opportunities, and the application steps required to access federal, provincial, and utility-sponsored grants. With the accelerating shift to electrified transportation, municipalities are in a strategic position to lead public and fleet charging solutions and in educating city planners and developers on best practices for future EV expansion.
Our webinar will provide a guide through applying for and securing grants to install electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. We will show real-world case studies and discuss brand-new technologies to demonstrate some successful municipal approaches to solving the shift to EVs.
Whether your city is planning its first Level 2 station or looking to scale up fast-charging hubs, this session provides the foundational knowledge and planning framework necessary to get started confidently and effectively.
