Electric Vehicle Charging

EV Charger

Charge at home for a fraction of the cost. No gas station markup.

Why it matters

Full Charge Overnight

A Level 2 home charger adds 25–90 km of range per hour depending on your vehicle. Most EVs go from near-empty to full in 6–8 hours — ready every morning, no detours, no line-ups.

Under $0.03/km vs. $0.15+/km for Gas

Charging at home costs a fraction of what you pay at the pump. Pair with solar and your effective fuel cost approaches zero — you're driving on your own power.

Universal Compatibility

J1772 and CCS connectors cover every EV sold in Canada. We also install Tesla Wall Connectors for Tesla owners.

How Installation Works

01

Electrical Assessment

We inspect your panel capacity and determine whether a service upgrade is needed before running a dedicated circuit to your garage.

02

Charger Selection

We help you choose a charger based on your EV, garage layout, and whether you want smart scheduling or solar integration.

03

Permitted Installation

A licensed electrician installs the circuit and charger, pulls the City of Calgary permit, and books the electrical inspection.

Typical Alberta Annual Savings

$1,400 – $2,400 per year
