Infrastructure is growing

NRCan's Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program supports charger deployment across Canada.

Coverage is not uniform

Major corridors and cities generally have more options than remote routes.

Charging time changes the itinerary

A charging stop can double as a meal or rest stop when planned well.

Check the live network

New chargers open and individual stations can be unavailable, so current network status matters more than an old list.

General travel-planning information only. Drivers must follow licence restrictions, traffic laws and current road-authority directions. Do not continue driving when fatigued or when weather, closures or road conditions make the trip unsafe.
