ARC, in collaboration with Auto Recycling World, is hosting a Canadian EV/Hybrid Auto Recycling virtual webinar.

The Automotive Recyclers of Canada (ARC) has been working on the implications to auto recyclers of the electrification of the Canadian fleet for almost two years now.

Lots of reading, seeking out experts, describing how the industry operates and may operate within a growing electric fleet economy, innumerable webinars, seminars and symposia, current and potential regulations – all to learn there is much more to learn.

“We have succeeded in a small way in putting the end-of-life issues relating to hybrid and electric vehicles on other people’s radar, as well as the radar of professional auto recyclers,” says Steve Fletcher, Managing Director of ARC. “We need to talk holistically about the entire EV, not just the battery, even though it is the new and dramatic element to this significant electrification juggernaut. Can these vehicles be safely and economically recovered, and their valuable resources used wisely? That is the question that has yet to be answered successfully.”

Haydn Davies, Editor of Auto Recycling World, said:

“It is important that auto recyclers understand the effect electric vehicles will have on their companies. Therefore, it’s great to be co-hosting with the ARC to help create focus and discussion on this topic. 

The platform that we use will provide all those attending the opportunity to discuss their thoughts with others after listening to a strong lineup of knowledgeable and experienced speakers.”

To that end, ARC, in collaboration with Auto Recycling World, is hosting a Canadian EV/Hybrid Auto Recycling virtual webinar on November 4, 2021, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm EST.

Steve added: “We’ve managed to line up some great speakers, and we are working on a few more areas of keen interest to auto recyclers as well as the complete supply chain within Canada. The response has been outstanding so far.”

Further details will be posted to the Auto Recycling World website, including topics, speaker profiles, sponsors and registration information.
