RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:DM EVS IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO BRINGING EVS TO BCInvestor10X wrote: Here are BC Hydro prices for EV charging. I believe BC Hydro's EV network also includes Flo and ChargePoint charging stations. There is also Tesla (for only Tesla), Greenlots and Petro-Canada charging networks. The etiquette for EV charging is not to be charging for more than 30-40 minutes so based on that you can do a rough calculation of cost to a customer. Your guess is as good as mine as to what would be the percentage DM would get per charging station, but clearly the company would know the answer to this, which is why they are moving into this vertical. It's obviously worth it.
Prices range depending on the station
Effective April 1, 2022, the cost to charge at BC Hydro EV stations is:
- 12.07 cents per minute for 25 kW charging (+5% GST)
- 21.13 cents per minute for 50 kW charging (+5% GST)
- 27.17 cents per minute for 100 kW charging (+5% GST)
Each session at our stations is billed per second. Following your charging session, you'll receive an emailed receipt with a breakdown of your charge, including how long you charged for (in minutes and seconds) and the session cost before and after 5% GST is applied.
Charging rates are approved by the B.C. Utilities Commission and are based on the maximum kW output of the charging station, not on actual kW output received or requested by the vehicle.
12.07 cents per minute = $7.25/hour
21.13 cents per minute = $12.68/hour
27.17 cents per minute = $16.30/hour
Easier to translate for me!
