We’re helping EV drivers get rolling across this great province. After all, road trips are all about recharging.
Fast Charging Network
In 2021, we completed the province’s first fast charging network for EVs. Currently, there are 14 fast charging stations from St. John’s to Port aux Basques, with more planned for 2022. EV drivers can now drive across the island with ease knowing that they have access to fast chargers at convenient locations approximately every 70km along the TCH as well as one in Gros Morne National Park.
More charging stations coming soon. LEARN MORE.

The electric vehicle (EV) chargers in our network are made by ChargePoint. To use these chargers, you’ll need to sign up for a free ChargePoint account, and have a ChargePoint card or a mobile device with the ChargePoint app installed.

Plan ahead.
Expect the unexpected.
Things like using continuous air conditioning or heating, very cold weather, and steep hills can decrease your range. Even with fast chargers located every 70 km on the TCH, it’s important to think about your trip in advance so you can better plan your stops along the way.
It’s best to plan your route and mark where you will be stopping to re-charge, just like you would plan where to have lunch or refuel.
