The Lion Electric Co., its partners and the Quebec Government are launching a major project to integrate equipment and technology into all-electric heavy vehicles. The estimated $15.8 million project, to which the government is contributing $7.9 million, will allow the development, in Quebec, of the only heavy electric specialty vehicles perfectly integrated to date. The project will lead to the manufacture in Quebec of a new generation of all-electric ambulances and various types of specialty urban vehicles, including refuse trucks and bucket trucks.
The mobilization of seven industry partners marks the birth of a genuine movement toward electric trucking in Quebec’s urban centres and an industry that will generate substantial economic benefits and contribute to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
