The Public Works and Infrastructure Committee today approved the City’s Green Fleet Strategy, which outlines City efforts to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from its vehicles. The strategy adopts an agile framework for incorporating new and emerging vehicle technologies and industry trends with the Council-approved goal to reduce GHG emissions by 2040 to 100 per cent below 2012 levels.
The strategy is based on a comprehensive assessment of low-carbon technologies and identifies battery electric vehicles as the most favorable technology. Fuel cell electric vehicles are also seen as a strong contender for heavy-duty vehicles, pending further technology and market advancements. The strategy includes short-term and long-term plans, along with regular reviews, to ensure the City remains current with improvements in zero-emission vehicle technologies.
Overall, the switch to greener vehicles is expected to save the City more than $6 million by 2040.
Items considered at this meeting will rise to Council on Wednesday, March 26.
