The Canadian city thinks the annual fee will speed up the rollout of chargers and the take-up of electric vehicles
Gas stations face a $136,000 CAD bill to install chargers, or a $10,000 fine if they don’t
The proposal is a handy way for Vancouver’s officials to expand the city’s charging infrastructure while incurring no cost. In fact, the scheme could raise $1.7 million CAD , which predicts that 30 percent of gas stations and 40 percentwould install chargers by 2030, increasing the number of chargers in the city by around 100. City staff say any money raised would be used to fund climate initiatives.
Predictably, businesses potentially affected by the proposal aren’t enthusiastic about the charge for not installing chargers, or the cost of installation should they decide to put some in. City Hall estimates it will cost $136,000 CAD to install a charger to a gas station, and $100,000 CAD to a parking lot, and that businesses can expect a seven- or eight-year wait to recoup that investment.
