Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program – Delivery Organizations
About
Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP) for delivery organizations (also known as, Initial Recipients) further distribute ZEVIP funds to “Ultimate Recipients” to install electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in public places, on-street, in multi-unit residential buildings, at workplaces, or for on-road vehicle fleets. The third-party delivery approach allows Initial Recipients to redistribute a portion of the ZEVIP funding to Ultimate Recipients for smaller, more localised EV infrastructure projects (less than $100,000) where Canadians live, work and play.
