Motion to standardize electric vehicle EV battery design for reparability also standing against planned obsolescence in all devices
- Introductory Statement
- Whereas consumer protest against EV adoption focuses on their kilometer range, battery cost and probable expensive failure, AND WHEREAS commercial electric vehicles present insurmountable problems with battery range and efficacy for business transportation using EV charging stations as their only means of refueling, AND WHEREAS past experience in the 1980s has shown the enormous benefit of standardization of the IBM PC hardware and MS DOS software and many other highly technical devices we recommend the following
- Emergency Motion Statement
- BE IT RESOLVED that the Green Party insist that the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) be called upon to review, recommend and advise for legislation by the Parliament of Canada to enable battery changeout design to be standardized by hardware machinery and software design to enable compatibility across all consumer model electric vehicles similar to computer standardization as per past and declining practices in that industry. AND BE IT RESOLVED that the Green Party stands against all means of planned obsolescence in the EV industry and other industries that prevent the most affordable and timely repair of electric vehicles and other devices by legislation if necessary.
- Type of Emergency Motion
- Public policy that the party would represent
- Benefit
- Benefits include: Reduced emissions by increase desirability and adoption of electric vehicles. Affordable reparability of EV vehicles by standardized maintenance through design. Affordable reparability of single cell failure of EV batteries where one cell fails in any given multicell design.
- Who does this motion impact?
- Impacts all Canadians Potentially impacts all EV commercial and consumer vehicle designs worldwide Government opposition to planned obsolescence enabling redirection in manufacturing
- Impact on exisiting GPC policy.
- New policy.

- Supporting Evidence
- The ever increasing poverty of engineering design HAS BEEN WITNESSED by the mover of this motion through 40 years of EXPERIENCE in industrial maintenance as an electronics engineering technician, a mechanic, an industrial electrician and likewise a computer repair technician. Consumers are fully aware of planned obsolesce and poor design evidenced by public movement to make all consumer items more repairable The CAMI commercial delivery vehicle GM factory in Ingersoll Ontario remain in extended layoff and shutdown through poor availability and poor design that enables only 4-6 hours of EV use before a required recharge
- Jurisdiction: Is this proposal under federal jurisdiction?
- Yes
