Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program funding – Indigenous organizations
$2,000,000.00
Grant
Description:
The Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP) is a $680 million program that was launched in 2019. The program aims to address the lack of charging infrastructure and hydrogen refuelling stations in Canada, one of the key barriers to zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) adoption, by increasing the availability of localized charging and hydrogen refuelling opportunities where Canadians live, work, and play.
This Request for Proposals (RFP) targets ZEV infrastructure projects to be carried out by Indigenous organizations. Only applications that meet ZEVIP’s requirements as outlined below will be considered for funding opportunities.
Comments on Funding:
NRCan’s contribution through ZEVIP will be limited to a maximum of 2 million dollars ($2,000,000) per project.
Financial support for projects is based on the total amount of funds available for ZEVIP and the program timeframe. Funding is subject to an appropriation by Parliament for the fiscal year in which payments are to be made.
