  • Electric Vehicle Technology Roadmap for Canada
    Electric Vehicle Technology Roadmap for Canada A strategic vision for highway-capable battery-electric, plug-in and other hybrid-electric vehicles Produced with funding from the Recycled paper Letter from the Chair of the Industry Steering Committee The race is on! The world is racing towards electric traction as the principal means of sustaining the comfort, convenience, and efficiency of the transportation systems used in our modern life. Canada is in a race with other countries to achieve the industrial, societal, and environmental benefits of electric vehicles. We started the race in a good position, with abundant renewable electric power and with Canadian companies and researchers leading the way in developing exciting new technologies. However, we have not maintained our competitive advantage while transitioning from research to commercialization. We have allowed other countries’ companies and governments to overtake us in setting aggressive goals and investing in achieving them—in getting green vehicles on the road and shaping the future of a new auto industry. It is not too late. If we act now, we can regain a strong position in bringing electric vehicles to market and achieve the full benefits of this burgeoning industry, including the commercialization of globally leading Canadian technology and the creation of high-end, knowledge-based jobs in Canada. The deployment of electric vehicles will also reduce fuel consumption and improve urban air quality while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Achieving these benefits requires immediate action and investment by both governments and industry or it will simply be impossible to meet the 2018 target of at least 500 000 electric vehicles on Canadian roads set out in the Roadmap.

  • Fire Fighter Safety and Emergency Response for Electric Drive and Hybrid Electric Vehicles
    Fire Fighter Safety and Emergency Response for Electric Drive and Hybrid Electric Vehicles Final Report A DHS/Assistance to Firefighter Grants (AFG) Funded Study Prepared by: Casey C. Grant, P.E. Fire Protection Research Foundation The Fire Protection Research Foundation One Batterymarch Park Quincy, MA, USA 02169-7471 Email: [email protected] http://www.nfpa.org/foundation © Copyright Fire Protection Research Foundation May 2010 (This page left intentionally blank) FOREWORD Today's emergency responders are facing unexpected challenges as new uses of alternative energy increase. These renewable power sources save on the use of conventional fuels such as petroleum and other fossil fuels, but they also introduce unfamiliar hazards that require new fire fighting strategies and procedures. Among these alternative energy uses are motor vehicles that utilize electric drive propulsion systems. This study focuses on electric drive and hybrid electric vehicles intended for roadway passenger use, and describes the variety of safety issues that these relatively new vehicles may present involving fire and/or rescue emergency situations either on the roadway or at charging/docking stations (e.g., garages). The safety of fire fighters and other emergency first responder personnel depends on understanding and properly handling these hazards through adequate training and preparation. The goal of this project has been to assemble and widely disseminate core principle and best practice information for fire fighters, fire ground incident commanders, and other emergency first responders to assist in their decision making process at emergencies involving electric drive and hybrid electric vehicles. Methods used include collecting information and data from a wide range of credible sources, along with a one-day workshop of applicable subject matter experts that have provided their review and evaluation on the topic.

PEDERSEN STEVEN WOODING DIMITRIS POTOGLOU WR-775 February 2012 Sponsored by RAND Europe's Direct Investment Programme This product is part of the RAND Europe working paper series. RAND working papers are intended to share researchers’ latest findings and to solicit informal peer review. They have been approved for circulation by RAND Europe but have not been formally edited or peer reviewed.

Preface This project is internally funded by RAND Europe's Direct Investment Programme and aims to develop an understanding of the factors affecting the wider adoption of electric vehicles. The project consists of two main phases: (i) a review of barriers and relevant government interventions; and (ii) a survey to determine the potential uptake of electric vehicles, using Cambridge, UK, as a case study. This Working Paper is the output from the first phase of the project. It provides an overview of the barriers and facilitators to the wider adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), and describes a variety of EV initiatives currently underway in a pragmatic selection of countries, namely the UK, France, Denmark, and Canada. Our research suggests that subsidising EV purchase costs means spending hundreds of millions of pounds of government funds, but that this would overcome a number of consumer barriers to wider EV uptake.

THAT the Street and Traffic By-Law be amended to allow Neighbourhood Zero Emission Vehicles to travel on streets with speed limits of 50 km/hr or less; B. THAT the Street and Traffic By-Law be amended to restrict Neighbourhood Zero Emission Vehicles to the lane on the street that is closest to the right hand edge or curb of the street, except when a left hand turn is necessary or when passing another vehicle; C. THAT Council instruct the Director of Legal Services to prepare an amendment to the Street and Traffic By-Law, generally as set out in Appendix A, for consideration by Council; and D. THAT Staff work together with the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia and the Vancouver Police Department to monitor the use of Neighbourhood Zero Emission Vehicles and report back to Council in 36 months. COUNCIL POLICY This subject deals directly with the City of Vancouver’s policies on promoting sustainability and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. PURPOSE On June 6, 2008, the British Columbia Motor Vehicle Act Regulations were amended to include the definition for a neighbourhood zero emission vehicle (NZEV). Prior to this, the Provincial regulations restricted NZEVs to streets with speed limits of 40 km/hr or less, and the Federal Neighbourhood Zero-Emission Vehicles / Low Speed Vehicles 2 regulations prohibited them from travelling at speeds over 40 km/hr.
