THUNDER BAY — The Thunder Bay Community Economic Development Commission hopes to attract more takers for a program that provides a significant subsidy for establishing electric vehicle charging stations in the city.
As of Monday, the Plug-in Thunder Bay program had committed funds for 44 chargers at various locations. Kabernick said the CEDC had projected a larger uptake for lower-level, lower-cost charging units, but that didn't happen.The initiative offers companies, institutions, entrepreneurs and property owners a contribution of up to 50 per cent of the cost of purchasing and installing Level 2 chargers or fast chargers.
Kabernick said the CEDC sees a need for more electric vehicle infrastructure in Thunder Bay, and "this program is a big incentive for organizations or businesses to look at installing chargers.""I can't talk about the individual price per charger just because it varies based on the level ... the price would range depending on the charger and the type of install and work needed at the site for the actual installation would drastically vary the cost as well.
