Novex Delivery Solutions takes another step towards a 100% Clean Fleet with order for REV Zero Emission Fleet Vehicles
October 23 2008, Vancouver BC, Novex Delivery Solutions and local electric vehicle conversion company REV Technologies jointly announced an order for REV's rapid electric vehicles and a commitment from Novex to a 100% clean fleet by 2012.


    VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA, October 24, 2008 /Global Warming News Articles/ -- This announcement takes place at REV's gala opening of the first electric vehicle showroom in Canada.The partnership between REV and Novex will mark the first time a 100% battery electric vehicle will be used in a fleet courier setting. This initial test program will be conducted with 5 Ford Escape SUV's, which will be converted by REV into pure battery electric vehicles. These zero emission models are expected to appear in the Novex fleet early in 2009.

"This is just another step for us in our goal for a 100% clean fleet by 2012. Our partnership with REV for electric vehicles is just one of many solutions to make a difference in the communities we serve. We are aggressively looking for best in class vehicles to reduce the environmental impact of our fleet and REV's plug-in hybrids and pure battery electric vehicles are ideal," says Novex CEO Robert Safrata.

"Courier companies are culprits when it comes to pollution," continues Safrata. "At Novex we're committed to being part of the climate change solution. This clean fleet commitment demonstrates the company's leadership position in the industry and its responsibility to its employees and the communities it services."

As concerns over global warming and gas prices have increased, plug-in vehicle conversions are gaining popularity. Because gas is 10 times more expensive than electricity, the fuel savings of plug-in vehicles offset the conversion costs. REV's battery electric vehicle conversions are road legal at highway speeds, produce no carbon emissions and will be widely available to fleets in 2009.

"This strong commitment from Novex demonstrates the powerful role that corporate fleets can take in reducing carbon emissions," states Jay Giraud, Founder and President of REV Technologies. "We are excited to announce this partnership with Novex, here today, at the Gala opening of Canada's first electric vehicle showroom."
