Nova Scotia Power and Emera celebrated the “first charge” of Nova Scotia’s new electric vehicle fast-charging network on June 25.
“Connecting our province end-to-end with EV infrastructure is a significant step toward achieving a lower carbon future driven by electrification,” said Karen Hutt, President & CEO of Nova Scotia Power. “Nova Scotia Power is focused
on providing our customers with innovative energy solutions that meet their needs and help the environment.”
Nova Scotia is now connected end-to-end with electric vehicle fast-charging stations. The fast-chargers are strategically located to enable EV drivers to travel across the province with ease. The location sites were selected based on a number of
criteria including proximity to a 100-series highway, each located approximately 65 kilometres apart. The locations are:
Yarmouth, Shell Digby, Sobeys Coldbrook, Sobeys Fast Fuel Shelburne, Sobeys Fast Fuel Liverpool, Sobeys Bridgewater, Best Western | Elmsdale, Sobeys Debert, Masstown Market Stellarton, Sobeys Fast Fuel Monastery, PetroCan Baddeck, Lynwood Inn North Sydney, Sobeys |
The Government of Nova Scotia has installed an additional 12 Level 2 chargers at the same locations. These chargers will provide a charging solution for plug-in hybrid vehicles that are unable to charge using the Level 3 chargers.
