As an original signatory to the Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) Declaration, Canada made an ambitious pledge to accelerate the adoption of ZEVs within its jurisdiction. Now, two years later, their recently released Electric Vehicle Availability Standard cements their commitment to transition their light-duty vehicle sector to zero-emission vehicles.

Ceres, the newest member of the A2Z Steering Committee, works to decarbonize six of the largest emitting sectors in our economy.

The ZEV Declaration and A2Z Coalition featured prominently at COP28 earlier this month in Dubai during a high-level event on accelerating the ZEV revolution.

The Accelerating to Zero Coalition released the COP28 Progress Update, a stocktake of the zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) transition to date.

Sylvain Filippi, managing director of ZEV Declaration signatory Envision Racing, sat down to discuss the world of electric vehicle racing and the importance of the Formula E platform in advancing the adoption of EVs globally.

The ZEV Community, a peer learning project from Climate Group, works closely with the Accelerating to Zero Coalition to bring align signatories to the ZEV Declaration.

A new report by the ICCT estimates that signatories of the ZEV Declaration could prevent nearly 5 billion tonnes of CO2 from entering the atmosphere if they fulfill their ambitious pledge to reach 100% new sales of zero-emission cars and vans by 2035 in leading markets, and 2040 globally.

OEM signatories of the ZEV Declaration represent both large, global companies and smaller, local brands. Six automakers, for which data was available, were analyzed.

Between 2021 and 2022, all national government signatories made advances towards electrifying their light-duty fleets and are each at unique stages in their transitions.
