Advancing Electric Mobility: BC Hydro’s Expansion in South Surrey

BC Hydro recently invested in an expansion for its electric vehicle (EV) fast charging site in South Surrey. This marks a significant stride towards supporting EV adoption in British Columbia.

Expanding Capacity: Doubling the Charging Units

With the addition of two new 100-kilowatt charging units, the site now boasts four fast chargers. This doubled its capacity to serve the growing community of EV drivers in South Surrey. The South Surrey site originally opened in May 2018 and is located at the Real Canadian Superstore (2332 160 Street).

Addressing Range Anxiety and Encouraging Adoption

Josie Osborne, Minister of Energy, Mines, and Low Carbon Innovation, emphasizes the importance of expanding public charging networks to alleviate range anxiety and encourage more drivers to switch to EVs powered by clean electricity.

Enhanced Accessibility and Environmental Benefits

Updates at the South Surrey site, including a curbless design and lower displays on the new chargers, enhance accessibility while promoting environmental and economic benefits.

Conclusion

BC Hydro’s expansion in South Surrey reflects a commitment to sustainable transportation solutions and underscores the importance of collaborative efforts in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting electric mobility across British Columbia.
