Peaks To Prairies Lethbridge electric vehicle station celebration

Peaks To Prairies is a community-driven initiative to support EV travel to and within Southern Alberta. The project will install 20 fast charging/Level 2 stations throughout the region as well as engage in a broad outreach and education campaign.

The objectives and goals of the project are to increase electric vehicle adoption, address GHG emissions related to the transportation sector, and to facilitate regional travel by electric vehicle.

In addition, Peaks To Prairies is supporting the renewable energy sector in the region by powering the stations with 100% renewable energy through renewable energy certificates sourced from southern Alberta projects (solar, wind or hydro).

CEA was the delivery and facilitating agent for Peaks to Prairies, working with founding partners to design the network and implement it in a way that reflected the values of the local communities.
