DYLAN DOWNEY PRESENTATION

On January 16, join us and our expert panel for our part 2 electric vehicles seminar. Part 1 covered new electric vehicle requirements and provided legal and policy insights. During this seminar learn firsthand from an expert panel on the following topics:
  • What do home builders need to consider when offering EV charging in new developments
  • What technologies are available to home builders and what features are important to EV drivers and stratas in terms of using and managing charging stations?
  • How will offering charging be impacted by parking entitlements and other strata by-laws, and what do home builders need to consider to minimize challenges to residents/future buyers?
  • What is EV charging energy management and how can home builders install more chargers with fixed capacity? How can energy audits help buildings prepare for EV readiness?

Dylan has spent the last two years working in the European EV charging market in partnership with the highly reputable Mennekes, the company who developed the Type 2 standard for Europe. Since moving to Vancouver, Dylan has continued his work in this field. When he began working for an engineering company  here who specialize in the energy field, he saw huge potential for this industry to work along side the design and implementation of electric vehicle charging system. Dylan?s aim with EV-Solve is to deliver bespoke solutions that meet the clients current and future needs. Using energy audits and potentially reducing energy in the rest of the building, EV-Solves mission is to ensure you protect the rest of your building with a full engineering design to ensure the clients gets the best possible solution for their needs. ?With the direction electric vehicles are heading, we must not only take into account a sites current conditions and how many chargers they need now, but also how many chargers they believe they will need over the next 10 years. When considering this bigger picture at the design stage, we ensure the system is easily expandable as the demand increases over time. We believe our role is to contribute to a positive EV charging experience, thus playing our role in contributing to EV uptake here in Canada.
