In 2021, the Urban Delivery Solutions Initiative made meaningful contributions to support an efficient and low-carbon urban freight system in Canadian cities. To help businesses and fleet operators test and scale up short-haul, return-to-base ZEVs, including electric cargo bicycles, in Canadian cities, the Pembina Institute and UDSI partners developed tools and resources, and conducted research to inform public policies and best practices. We also convened public events that brought together industry, NGOs, government, innovators, and academia to build greater awareness to the opportunities offered by ZE MHDVs, as well as to cultivate a community of practice for sustainable urban freight in Canada.
