As the world accelerates toward clean energy adoption, governments are introducing stronger policies to ensure accountability and transparency in emissions reduction. In Canada, the Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR) require EV charging operators to report energy use under Category 3 (CC3) to generate credits via the Credit and Tracking System (CATS).
For charging networks, operators, and technology providers, this means that robust data capture, reporting, and audit-readiness are no longer optional — they are mission-critical.
At evbahancontrols, we specialize in delivering end-to-end software solutions that help EV charging operators seamlessly comply with CFR requirements while unlocking new revenue streams through credit generation.
