Cambrian College is helping to step up Sudbury's role as a key centre for Battery Electric Vehicle knowledge and innovation.
This formal announcement of the testing centre was revealed by FedNor earlier this year, but Gravel provided newer details this past week. "A lot of the time, there's a bit of a gulf in data between what is done in simulations or done in modelling and what's actually done when they're integrated in a normal size vehicle. What we are trying to do is give them better data on simulating by actually turning the motors on the same duty cycle that you can expect to see underground," Gravel explained.
