The Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) has partnered with seven research institutions to create North America’s first-ever cluster of post-secondary institutions dedicated specifically to researching battery electric and fuel cell electric buses.
With a vision to make Canada a global leader in low-carbon smart mobility technologies across heavy-duty and light-duty platforms, CUTRIC has partnered with OCAD University, Ontario Tech University, Queen’s University, the University of Windsor, Centennial College, York University and Canadian Nuclear Labs.
Over a three-year period, CUTRIC and its members will contribute $4.2m in funding, with an additional $551,000 through the federally supported Mitacs Accelerate and Elevate programs, to fund CUTRIC’s National Academic Committee on Zero-Emissions Buses (NAC-ZEB).
