Electronic vehicles (EVs) represent the ultimate convergence of advanced engineering technologies. The global commitment to aggressively reduce emissions, combined with the nearly 95 million conventional cars produced yearly, points to a massive growth potential for EVs. Nearly every country with an established manufacturing base is competing to become a leading exporter of EV technology, and the stakes are high.

In this talk, Prof. Trescases will highlight several exciting industry collaborations, and the story of the "little yellow car," leading up to the creation of the U of T Havelaar EV Research Centre that will unleash U of T's unique multi-disciplinary research capabilities.

Prof. Trescases presentation is one of the many diverse events bringing U of T right into your community. Stay informed, inspired and connected, because together we are boundless.
