Can Canada improve rail safety with zero-emission and autonomous tech?
Ten years on from Lac-Mégantic, Electric Autonomy looks at the rail industry’s safety and sustainability record in Canada…
InductEV Joins The Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC)
In Canada, several research institutions are leading the way, exploring the potential of wireless EV charging technology and implementing pilot projects nationwide. This elevates the country’s position in the global EV market and contributes to a greener, more sustainable future. Zero emission buses (ZEBs) are one of the vehicle types in Canada that are gaining traction quickly.
Federal funding will help Burlington move towards electric buses
The federal government is working closely with cities and industry partners to support a green transition to zero emission buses. Together, we will address our common climate goals. The program will match Burlington with London as the first partners in the Canadian Urban Transit Zero Emission Bus Joint Procurement Initiative (CUTZEB) meant to assist with the costs associated with the transition.
The Government of Canada and the City of Quinte West invest in transitioning to a full fleet of zero emission vehicles
Through this investment, the City of Quinte West and Quinte Transit will complete the necessary planning required to transition to a full fleet of zero-emission vehicles, including an evaluation of the economic, technological, and environmental aspects of deploying zero-emission public transit vehicles.
Expert Outlines Potential Solutions In Transit Hydrogen Adoption
With economics a hurdle to clear in decarbonizing city transit, the head of an industry-led organization says there are different paths to getting there.
Town of Cochrane and Government of Canada Partner in Grant for Electric Bus Research
The town is working with the Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) to research transit electrification for Cochrane.
Town of Okotoks Transit Could Be Going Electric
The Town of Okotoks’ transit fleet may be switching to zero emission electric vehicles.
They’ve partnered with the Government of Canada Canadian Urban Transit Research & Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) for a feasibility study to explore options for the change.

“Finally, there’s a little bit of sex appeal in our rail sector,” says Josipa Petrunic, CEO of the Canadian Urban Transit Research & Innovation Consortium, a non-profit devoted to sustainable transportation options. “We, as Canadians, have just been desperately underserved by rail. We’ve let it atrophy. And TransPod is at the highest end of passenger-rail innovation.”
Canada invests in electrification of Saskatoon’s bus fleet – With CUTRIC
The Canadian government is investing in the electrification of Saskatoon’s bus fleet, announcing $420,000 in funding to plan for the electrification of Saskatoon Transit’s bus fleet. Through this investment, Saskatoon Transit will create a five-step strategy that will examine costs, assess risks and benefits, and identify the infrastructure and internal resources needed to transition to a low-carbon fleet.
Petrunić and Crombie: How Mississauga can help lead Canada’s transition to low-carbon hydrogen
Mississauga and the Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium have already taken steps to develop a first-of-its-kind pilot project that would see 10 hydrogen FCEBs introduced to their MiWay fleet and help the city get one step closer to decarbonizing its bus system. This pilot will kick-start the development of Canada’s first local hydrogen ecosystem, capitalizing on a national network of manufacturing, production, knowledge innovation, and design.
