BC introduces amendment increasing EV’s manufacturing targets

Osborne continues by saying B.C. is the leader on the switch to electric vehicles and hopes that these actions will make it easier for drivers to choose electric when they make their next purchase.

We’re taking action to encourage a cleaner British Columbia, while making headway on CleanBC’s mission to reduce emissions by 40% by 2030. These changes also support rising demand for cleaner vehicles on the roads and will make it easier for more people to choose an electric vehicle.

George Heyman, Minister of Environment and Climate Change Strategy.

Along with the amendments, British Columbia’s Go Electric EV Charger Rebate Program for homes, workplaces and multiunit residential buildings has been recharged with $7 million in provincial funding. The program’s funds were exhausted earlier in the year due to higher-than-anticipated demand. EV charger rebate applications for single-family homes and workplaces will reopen on Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2023.

The ZEV Act supports B.C.’s CleanBC goals to reduce greenhouse gasses, increase economic opportunities and improve community health.
