While municipalities are transitioning towards using a low carbon fleet, the need for emerging technology is rising. In this webinar, we learned more about portable solar EV chargers from Andy Ike, Envision Solar. In the second part, we explored the Canadian legal framework on autonomous vehicles. Fahad Shuja from the Ontario Good Roads Association talked about how Ontario is ahead of the curve with its Ottawa-Windsor Preferred Corridor project. Fahad Khan from the City of Toronto presented the Automated Shuttle Trial.
