NSCC, NSP partner on two electric vehicle pilot programs

Nova Scotia Community College and Nova Scotia Power (NSP) have partnered on two pilot programs focused on smart chargers and bidirectional charging for electric vehicles. The two parties will work together on the development of infrastructure and technology testing, which will also bring educational opportunities to students at NSCC’s Middleton campus. “[T]he students there are learning about things like energy efficiency, renewable energy, energy storage, smart grid kind of ideas, and this is one of them,” said NSCC applied energy research scientist Wayne Groszko. “[They’re] actually participating directly.” Saltwire (NS)
