Electric vehicles in Canada and selected countries / Jed Chong, Economics, Resources and International Affairs Division, Parliamentary Information and Research Service.: YM32-2/2017-27E-PDF
“This Background Paper provides a general overview of the deployment of electric vehicle (EV) technology. It first outlines the different types of EVs, then goes on to discuss in section 2 one of the main drivers of EV deployment in Canada: namely, concern over greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the transportation sector. Section 3 focuses on the role of the federal government with respect to EVs and provides examples of recent federal initiatives to support the sector. Finally, section 4 compares the state of EV deployment in Canada with the rest of the world, using data from the International Energy Agency (IEA)"--Introd., p. 1.
