Navigating the Emission Highway: Trucking Industry’s Reporting Challenges
The trucking industry stands at a crossroads, facing growing pressure to embrace sustainability, increased reporting, and tapering margins.
As the world grapples with climate change, businesses are increasingly recognizing the need to address their environmental impact. For the trucking industry, this means understanding and mitigating emissions associated with their operations.
The Impact of Clean Fuel Regulations on EV Charging in Alberta
By: Prageet Nibber
Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR) are transforming the transportation sector by reducing the life cycle carbon intensity of gasoline and diesel fuels, starting July 1, 2023. For the Electric Vehicle (EV) sector, this regulation is a key opportunity to invest in and expand EV charging infrastructure.
Transportation Emissions, Reductions, and Quantification
In alignment with the International Energy Agency, Canada has a goal to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Canada’s efforts to achieve the necessary emissions reductions to reach net-zero include continued investment, a strong regulatory framework to drive change, and incentives to shift consumer behaviour away from highly emitting transportation sources.
Building Prosperity into the Future of Trucking
World economies are positioning themselves for success in the emerging low-carbon future. The value chains that will power our future economy are being set up today, and global leaders—including in Canada—are looking to seize the opportunities created by this change.
Exciting Collaborations in the Hydrogen Ecosystem
The Hydrogen Ecosystem is rapidly evolving, fueled by innovative collaborations. One significant initiative involves the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT), which received funding from Natural Resources Canada for a project focused on raising awareness and providing training in hydrogen technology for the medium and heavy vehicle industry. To achieve this, NAIT has partnered with key organizations, including the Alberta Motor Transport Association (AMTA), the City of Edmonton, First Truck, the Canadian Hydrogen Association, and Diesel Tech Industries (DTI).
