Post-secondary (college and university) student teams are invited to demonstrate how they would use technology to influence the introduction of electric vehicles and related infrastructure. The competition is being organized as part of the SmartFutures: Connecting, Energy, Technology and Communities conference being held November 2-3 by the Durham Strategic Energy Alliance.
Teams are asked to design and build a smart device application (iOS/ Blackberry/ Android, etc.) that will address a barrier around adopting new electric vehicle technologies. The abstract submission deadline is September 16, 2011. Contact Karen Conchie, kconchie@dsea.ca, for more information.
