Join us as we chat with Simon Pillarella from ChargeHub to talk about how they’ve joined forces with organizations, businesses, and the government to help make using public charging networks a seamless process for Canadians.
Episode 2: Off-Grid Charging with Create Solar: Today, most electric vehicle owners charge up using the electric power grid, but Create Solar is working on giving Canadians options. We’re joined by a solar engineer, Franzi Tschurtschenthaler, to discuss the options available for off-grid EV charging.
Episode 3: Recharged: EV Battery Recycling with Lithion Technologies: Lithium-ion battery recycling is a hot topic.
