Four DC fast chargers installed at local Canadian Tire store

Toronto, ON (November 9, 2020) – Electrify Canada today announced the opening of its latest electric vehicle (EV) fast charging station in Kingston, ON. Located at the Canadian Tire store at 2560 Princess Street, the station is equipped with four DC fast chargers, providing charging speeds of 150kW up to 350kW, allowing for EV drivers to get on the road and toward their final destination quickly.

Electrify Canada stations are located along major transit highways and metro areas that connect Canadian EV drivers to convenient amenities and popular destinations – like the historic city of Kingston. Kingston is also a metropolitan stop point on the Quebec City – Windsor corridor, providing the range confidence needed to complete longer trips.

“Our Kingston station is a particularly significant addition to our network because it provides EV drivers with a fast, convenient and reliable charging point as they travel across the province or even into Quebec,” said Rob Barrosa, chief operating officer at Electrify Canada. “Like all our stations, it’s also very conveniently located for local residents looking to charge up while running errands or on the go.”

The charging station in Kingston is the seventh of thirteen planned locations to open in Ontario. Each station is equipped with a minimum of four DC fast chargers featuring a charging power range from 150kW and up to 350kW for capable vehicles. For added convenience, drivers can locate a charger, start, track and pay for a session all through the Electrify Canada app.

Electrify Canada’s goal is to promote greater Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) adoption by building a transformative, ultra-fast electric vehicle (EV) direct current (DC) charging infrastructure that gives Canadians the speed and reliability to confidently make the switch to electric. The network is working to install 32 locations with 128 chargers across four provinces.
