Orillia now has electric vehicle charging stations available for public use at the city’s recreation centre on West Street South. The level two charging stations can handle four vehicles at once and drivers will be charged $2.00 per hour to charge.
The City’s EV charging stations are being offered in partnership with Ivy Charging Network, a joint partnership between Hydro One and Ontario Power Generation with additional funding provided by Natural Resources Canada’s Zero-Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program.
The Orillia Recreation Centre’s EV charging stations can be found by downloading the Ivy app as well as through various websites and applications, such as PlugShare, that promote EV charging station infrastructure. For more information, please visit ivycharge.com.
