Fueling the Future Webinar: Real-World Insights from BC’s Alternative Fuel Trucking Pilots

The trucking industry is facing increasing pressure to reduce emissions while maintaining operational efficiency, reliability, and profitability. But what do zero and low-carbon emission trucking technologies look like in real-world commercial operations?

Join BCTA for a practical, data-driven discussion on some of British Columbia’s most significant alternative fuel trucking initiatives. This webinar will bring together government, industry, and technology leaders to share real-world results from battery-electric, hydrogen, and hybrid truck projects currently operating in commercial service across the province.

Attendees will hear directly from organizations leading these deployments:

• The BC Ministry of Energy and Climate Solutions will present findings from the Province’s Commercial Vehicle Pilots Program, highlighting key lessons learned from battery-electric truck projects operating across British Columbia.
• Innovate BC will share results from the HDZEV Integrated Markets Project, showcasing battery-electric and hydrogen-powered trucks currently operating in active port drayage service in Prince Rupert.
• HTEC will present insights from the deployment of a hydrogen-powered truck across multiple operational contexts in BC, highlighting performance, challenges, and opportunities for broader adoption.
• Edison Motors will provide an update on their Canadian-built, first-of-its-kind hybrid-electric truck platform and discuss how the technology is being developed to meet the demands of real-world trucking applications.

Why Attend?

This webinar is not about future concepts or theoretical projections – it is about trucks operating on BC roads today.

Participants will gain valuable insights into how these vehicles are performing in real-world applications across British Columbia. You’ll hear firsthand about vehicle performance, energy efficiency, range, charging and fueling requirements, and infrastructure readiness. Presenters will highlight what’s working, where challenges remain, and what carriers should consider when evaluating emerging vehicle technologies.

Whether you are actively evaluating alternative fuel technologies or simply looking to stay informed on where the industry is headed, this session will provide direct access to the organizations leading these projects and the real-world data emerging from them. Learn how these technologies are performing in commercial service, what lessons have been learned from early deployments, and what the future may hold for sustainable trucking in British Columbia.
