September 12 – AVEQ Day / Electric vehicles in the spotlight in Boisbriand

The City of Boisbriand is hosting the Info-expo of the Electric Vehicle Association of Quebec (AVEQ). The activity will take place on Saturday, September 12, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., in the parking lot of the town hall, located at 940, boul. from the Grande-Allée.
“This day fits perfectly into the shift towards electrification of transport initiated a few years ago by the City of Boisbriand,” says Mayor Marlene Cordato.
Headed by AVEQ, the info-expo offers information kiosks run by volunteer electric motorists on the different models of cars, their recharging as well as the government subsidies offered.
The activity is free, but registration at www.aveq.ca is recommended since the number of people admitted to the site is limited, due to health.
The day will also be an opportunity for the City to introduce residents to its municipal fleet of electric vehicles, which includes several hybrid or electric vehicles, including four “mobipods”, used by municipal employees.
It should be noted that the City of Boisbriand also has 18 charging stations on its territory, many of which are direct current charging stations (DCFC).
