*Rail EER disclaimer. CFR Schedule 5 does not publish a rail-specific EER. We treat heavy rail as a heavy-duty diesel replacement (EER 5.0, the published Schedule 5 value for electricity replacing heavy-duty diesel). An operator registering a rail credit pathway should confirm the applicable EER with their verifier and ECCC before relying on these estimates.

Assumptions & sources Revenue figures are based on current CFR credit market pricing (CAD $400/credit). Market prices move — actual realised revenue will vary. Reference CI: Fuel LCA Model Specifications v4.0 (Jan 2025), Schedule 1 & 6. EER values per ECCC Schedule 5. Provincial electricity CI (gCO2e/MJ) per ECCC Specifications for Fuel LCA Model CI Calculations v4.0, Table 12 (2021 Reference Grid Mix). Renewable % assumes a verified on-site generation or PPA CI pathway. For informational purposes only — not an offer to create or sell credits.

Like what you see? Let's make it real.

Small and medium fleets don’t have to go it alone. Climate Decode’s ZEV Catalyst pools fleets and charging operators into a single managed programme — we handle the credit-creation agreement, monitoring and reporting, third-party verification, and sale of the credits. You keep the vast majority of the credit revenue; we keep a small management fee. No upfront cost.

Different sectors, fleets, and provinces — every case below is built from the same CFR math you just ran. Open any case to see the full fleet profile, projection, and formula walk-through.

Commercial Greenhouse
Ontario

EV Forklifts + Electric Construction Equipment

A commercial greenhouse operator running EV forklifts across its grow houses, plus a small set of battery-electric loaders supporting an adjacent expansion site.

Fleet Scale
~30 electric units
Est. Revenue / Yr
~CAD 108K
Supermarket Chain
Quebec

EV Forklifts + Electric Warehouse Movers

A national supermarket chain retrofitting six regional distribution centres with battery-electric material-handling fleets — one of the highest-volume operator footprints in the programme.

Fleet Scale
~100 electric units
Est. Revenue / Yr
~CAD 353K
Mining Operator
Ontario

Battery-Electric Underground Rail & Support Equipment

Underground mining operator replacing diesel haulage with a battery-electric rail system plus electric support and service equipment — one of the highest kWh-per-unit profiles under the CFR methodology.

Fleet Scale

Est. Revenue / Yr
~CAD 1.63M
City Government
British Columbia

Public EV Charging Network + Municipal Fleet Electrification

A BC city running a public fast-charging network while electrifying its municipal car fleet and field service vans — a double CFR opportunity with the largest combined footprint in the programme.

Fleet + Infra
~150 chargers + vehicles
Est. Revenue / Yr
~CAD 1.98M
Provincial Utility
Saskatchewan

Electric Service Vehicle Fleet for Field & Line Crews

A provincial utility electrifying its field-services and line-crew fleet — service vans, purpose-built electric utility trucks, and depot-hub charging on Canada’s highest-CI grid (SK ~218 gCO2e/MJ, ECCC Fuel LCA Model v4.0 Table 12). Credits still clear.

Fleet Scale
