It’s been a quarter full of great events, including Electric Mobility Canada’s annual conference #EVVE2024 last month; where our EY #eMobility team participated in several key sessions to showcase our leadership in advancing the #EVTransition. From moderating a dynamic panel on #EV Infrastructure & Power Generation to sessions on Consumer Knowledge & Confidence, #CX, and #Data Risks in EV Charging, our involvement reflects a deep commitment to shape the future of electrification. Special thanks to the conference organizers and #NRCAN for the opportunity to collaborate around such pivotal conversations across public and private sectors. Please send me a connection request/message if we missed each other at the event. Let me know in the comments as well what your key takeaway was from this year's #EVVE. #ElectricFuture #EVInfrastructure #Electrification #EVCharging Anthony Patriarca Sara Ganowski Dan Guatto, P.

Canadian’s buy more Lamborghinis than Italians 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 says Vito Paladino, President and CEO of Volkswagen Group Canada Inc.; a fun fact to start your week!   And a cool takeaway from this great event on the future of EVs in Canada I had the best time attending; hosted by the ICCO Canada – Italian Chamber of Commerce of Ontario Canada, and supported by Alectra and EY. It was a real privilege to speak alongside Flavio Volpe, C.M., Joe D'Urzo, Daniela Carcasole, and Vito as well as represent the EY eMobility North America team. Our discussions delved into the challenges and opportunities shaping the #EV market within Canada and globally. I'd love to hear your thoughts on some of the topics we discussed, including what do you think is the biggest untapped area to broader EV adoption? Is it charging infrastructure, consumer experience, or something else entirely?    Let’s keep the conversation going! ⚡ #ElectricVehicles #EVCharging #Sustainability #Innovation #EVTransition #FutureOfTransportation #CleanEnergy

Don't miss this 30m panel at the EV SUMMIT USA on Tuesday, Octover 15! -> "Powering the Future: The Role of Utilities in Electrification", kicking off at 10:00 local time. Join my EY colleague Sara Ganowski, BC Hydro's Kees Jansen, Constellation's Shaheer Kazi, SDG&E's Todd Cahill, and Octopus Electric Vehicles' Christopher George for what promises to be an engaging and forward-thinking discussion, diving into the pivotal role utilities play in accelerating the electrification of our transportation networks and beyond. It’s yet another example of this summit fulfilling its purpose to drive cross-industry collaboration for an electric future.

I'm really excited for my keynote: "Shape the Future of a Sustainable EV Market", at the EV SUMMIT USA! It will explore the latest EY study on the rising interest in EVs among US consumers, with nearly half considering an #EV purchase last year. Our research addresses the challenges of home charging safety and insufficient charging infrastructure, and how these impact the energy industry's role in boosting charging confidence for a smoother transition to electrification. I hope to see as many of you as possible at the University of Texas in Austin on October 15. There will be plenty of insights for leaders across the EV space throughout the day (more on that later this week). But above all, speaking at and attending the summit is the perfect opportunity to drive the industry forward as we come together to shape the future of the North American #eMobility market over the next 12 months and beyond. I’m looking forward to sharing my view and hearing others' perspectives on the challenges and opportunities facing the EV sector while pushing the conversation to the next level. If you're attending, I’d love to connect before the event to help accelerate the #EVTransition. And you can now use promo code EY50 for 50% off delegate passes!

Join me at the upcoming ICCO Canada – Italian Chamber of Commerce of Ontario Canada EV Leadership Conference on October 2. I'm excited to be speaking at the event, representing EY, and reflecting on my over 25+ years in the energy space as well as contributing to my Italian heritage. It's another opportunity to accelerate the shift towards sustainable transportation and eMobility that's been an important theme to all the events I've attended so far this year. Link to get tickets to join the event at EY Tower in Toronto below. And a special thank you to ICCO Canada for having me as part of this important conference. Looking forward to connecting with other leaders and sector experts passionate about the electric future. Together, we can pave the way for a sustainable and zero-emissions change!    #EVTransition #ElectricFuture #eMobility #Sustainablity

#EV price parity with petrol and diesel vehicles is no longer a distant goal - it’s on the immediate horizon, as Steve Patton explores in his latest piece for Fortune. ⚡🚗 EY research suggests we could see this tipping point as early as 2025, with advances in battery tech and manufacturing efficiency driving down costs. As a result, the economic case for EVs is strengthening, and this shift will not only reshape the automotive market but also accelerate the transition to a more sustainable future. It's time for automakers and infrastructure providers to respond to this momentum. But let me know in the comments what you think is the biggest challenge to ensure EV price parity translates into widespread adoption. More insights from Steve here. #EVTransition #ElectricFuture #Sustainability #PriceParity #eMobility #AutomotiveTrends #EnergyTransition

Despite significant advancements in #EV tech and charging infrastructure, consumer concerns remain a hurdle. Some are still hesitant to fully embrace EVs, with battery costs and charging availability topping the list of worries. Thanks to Business Insider for highlighting our latest EY Mobility Consumer Index, which dives into these barriers and how they can be overcome to accelerate adoption. It's clear we need to bridge the gap between tech and consumer confidence. Read more below. #EVTransition #ElectricFuture #Sustainability #EVCharging #eMobility
