SUMMARY:The Road to Transit Electrification
DESCRIPTION:Utilities play a key role in planning for future transportation electrification and supporting private sector investment. The shift to transportation electrification will have major impacts on the daily operations and functions of utility providers and rate regulators\, and capacity of existing systems. The way in which customers will consume electricity will change which provides challenges and opportunities for utilities\, along with the impacts on the grid and how utilities manage peak demand. \nThis webinar will look at examining which jurisdictions and utilities have done well in planning for electrification and what can be learned from those areas. The conversation will also investigate what enables transportation electrification planning. Finally\, it will delve into how this can be adopted in the Canadian context in different jurisdictions. \nParticipants: \nModerator: Cara Clairman\, President & CEO\, Plug’n Drive \nSpeakers: \n\nTed Wigdor\, VP Policy\, Government and Corporate Affairs\, Electricity Distributors Association\nDaniel Carr\, Head of Smart Cities\, Alectra Utilities\nRaegan Bond\, Partner\, Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors\nMaria Bocanegra\, Commissioner\, Illinois Commerce Commission

SUMMARY:The Road to Transit Electrification
DESCRIPTION:Across North America transit agencies are updating their fleets with lower emission vehicles. As well as providing environmental benefits that help meet national and local environmental goals\, electric vehicles also come with lower operating costs. \nLocal governments and transit agencies have often been at the forefront of tackling climate change and the shift from diesel buses to electric is a shift many transit agencies are making. Although there are benefits including reduced fuel costs\, less vehicle noise\, improved air quality\, and reduced emissions\, as with any transition there are challenges to overcome. \nThis discussion will draw on the experience of transit agencies from Canada and the U.S. and leading companies in the sector to explore those challenges\, and identify the most effective approaches to overcoming them\, and lessons learned through the process.
