The province says more electric vehicle (EV) charging stations are on the way as EV popularity continues to rise in B.C.
Last year, electric cars made up 18.1 per cent of all light-duty passenger vehicles sold in the province, according to the B.C. government.
To support electric vehicle interest, the province says it's investing another $26 million to build approximately 250 new public light-duty, fast-charging stations. "The new funding we are announcing today to expand B.C.'s public charging network will help get more EVs on the road, reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, and lower fuel costs for people," she said.
