Electrify Canada announced a network expansion including its first stations in the province of Nova Scotia and further expansion in Québec. Located along popular travel routes and near shopping and dining, the seven new stations will add more than 40 individual next-generation chargers, capable of speeds up to 350 kW.
The five new Québec stations in Greenfield Park, Mont-Tremblant, Laval, Québec City, and St-Hyacinthe, join the network’s existing locations in Drummondville, Mirabel, Repentigny, Sherbrooke, St-Romuald, and Trois-Rivières. As EV adoption increases, Electrify Canada also plans to add larger stations, and Greenfield Park and Laval are the network’s first eight charger stations.
Electrify Canada’s network presence now extends to seven provinces with the addition of Nova Scotia. Near the border of New Brunswick and close to Halifax, the new stations in Amherst and Bedford help enable travel between provinces.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Canadian Tire to bring more Hyper-Fast charging to locals, commuters, and travellers in the provinces of Nova Scotia and Québec – the zero-emission volume leader,” said Scott Hollinshead, program manager, OEM business development at Electrify Canada. “These new stations almost double our presence in Québec and introduce Electrify Canada to Nova Scotia. With locations now in seven provinces, Electrify Canada is committed to supporting the widespread adoption of electric vehicles across Canada.”
The charging stations in Nova Scotia and Québec are partially funded by Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN) ZEVIP funding.
