Description
To support our community’s transition to electric vehicles, our charging infrastructure must be built so that it is ready and convenient to access as people look to adopting electric vehicles.
This action will be led by organizations, businesses, and governments, with support from Sustainable Waterloo Region. Please see below for the most publicly available updates.
As of Fall 2023, applications through the NRCan Education and Awareness Project Funding – Clean Transportation and Clean Fuels have been submitted to further support this action.
