In honour of Earth Day, Electrify Canada will not charge electric vehicle drivers for charging sessions at its ultra-fast charging stations, starting at 12:00 a.m. EDT April 22 on through to 3:00 a.m. EDT April 23.
In a news release, the company said drivers of EVs can locate a charging station by visiting the Electrify Canada website, which reveals 22 charging stations in the provinces of Quebec, Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta. Each one is equipped with four chargers capable of speeds of up to 150kW and 350kW.
“Driving electric is an impactful action consumers can take to help reduce their carbon footprint and Electrify Canada is excited to celebrate this by offering free charging sessions on Earth Day,” said Giovanni Palazzo, President of Electrify Canada. “We are proud to help lead an electric vehicle revolution by enabling electric transportation for Canadians, on Earth Day and every day.”
The company also created the hashtag #ChargeOnEarth to help foster grassroots support for Earth Day, and is encouraging EV drivers to take advantage of the free charging sessions and share their commitment to the EV lifestyle through their social platforms.
Electrify Canada expects to have 32 charging stations (from the current 22), with a total of 128 individual fast chargers by the end of 2021.
