Vancouver Proposes $10,000 Penalty For Gas Stations And Parking Lots Without EV Chargers
Vancouver wants to charge gas stations and parking lots without EV chargers a $10,000 CAD ($7,900) annual fee to encourage the take-up of electric vehicles in the city.
A business license for a gas station in the city currently costs $263 CAD ($209), and a parking lot license stands at $163 ($129), but if sites can’t offer charging stations by 2025 they’ll be stung with a huge additional bill.
Gas stations would be required to provide 50 kW of charging power, according to a report on news website, The Province, which is enough for one fast DC charger. Parking lots would be required to offer 26.6 kW of juice, equating to four lower-powered chargers delivering around 12-30 miles (20-50 km) of additional electric driving per hour of charging, though smaller lots holding fewer than 60 cars would be exempt.
Vancouver City Hall believes the scheme would speed up the rollout of electric charging points in the city and encourage drivers to make the switch to EVs.
