Efforts that the City of Windsor can take that would encourage the transition to electric vehicles include:
-
Increasing the number of publicly available charging stations;
-
Increasing visibility of electric vehicles through adoption in municipal fleet;
-
Promoting the benefits and requirements of EVs to residents; and
-
Offering parking incentives to owners of EVs.
The City of Windsor is uniquely positioned to benefit from the shift from internal combustion engines towards electric vehicles. Besides benefitting from reducing GHG emissions, increased demand in electric vehicles could potentially lead to more investment locally, thus benefiting our region.
