π EV/AV Cluster Meetup - Financing Fleet Electrification & V2G
Welcome back to the π 9Zero EV/AV Cluster π where builders, operators, and enthusiasts come together to explore whatβs next in electric and autonomous mobility.
This session features two 9Zero members working at the forefront of electric fleet deployment:
- Chris Lafley, Project Finance lead at Highland Electric Fleets
- Guy Van Syckle at HASI, a leading sustainable infrastructure investor.
We'll dig into what electrifying fleets, particularly school transportation, actually requires on the ground, where V2G is working today, and where utility adoption is still the bottleneck. Additionally, we'll discuss how innovative financing structures are making deals possible that otherwise wouldn't pencil.
Expect a casual but dynamic conversation covering the full range of infrastructure, financing, and grid services, from cross-vehicle-class perspectives down to what's actually happening at the school bus level.
