A Canadian Climate Institute report says Canada needs about 19 times more EV chargers by 2040. Most of those chargers are expected to be at home, according to the report.
The report calls for EV-ready building rules, dedicated rural funding and managed charging. It says these measures are needed to close gaps that the private sector will not fill on its own.
The source does not provide more detail on the report’s methodology or specific charger totals beyond the 2040 estimate.
