A webinar hosted by Raymond Gouron, General Manager of the Québec Propane Association on November 4 demonstrated that while the Québec market is challenging, significant opportunity remains for auto propane. This includes the conversion of fleets such as taxis, delivery trucks and private company vehicles, as well as the growing market of auto propane school buses where transportation solution companies and schools are increasingly seeing the benefits of choosing propane over electric to lower emissions and save money.
Panelists included: Guy Marchand, president, Budget Propane & P38 as well as administrator and president of the Auto Propane Committee in Québec who discussed government financial assistance; Michel Gaulin, regional manager Eastern Canada, MaxQuip who provided an overview on the evolution of conversion technologies; Jean-Claude McNicoll, trainer and owner of l'ABC de L'Énergie, who presented the challenges of continuing education and access to a specialized workforce; and Mario Desrosiers director of sales at Inovoto Technologie who explained how to resolve common issues when converting vehicles to auto propane.
