The Go Electric Fleet Show

This Series is all about fleet electrification in British Columbia. Here you will find interviews with a variety of fleets who have gone electric in B.C., plus information about the CleanBC Go Electric Fleet Charging Program.

These videos feature EV fleet success stories, fleet managers who can share information and advice on adopting ZEVs, and general information regarding the adoption of ZEVs in fleets. We’ve sought out stories from light duty fleets, medium- and heavy-duty fleets, and those using specialty vehicles from cargo-bikes to airplanes.

We make these videos so that fleet managers in B.C. can see learn about supporting programs and see examples from other companies and organizations that have gone electric. There will be 10+ episodes in the initial series.
