Expanded electric capacity to handle EVs must be taken seriously, say experts

Measures by the federal government intended to electrify transportation will come with more pressure on the electric grid, leaving some experts questioning how well Canada will handle the increased energy demand. “We certainly know that , especially alongside other electrification … they're all going to add to electricity demand,” said Daniel Posen, an associate professor in the department of civil and mineral engineering at the University of Toronto.

“The federal government has set these targets and is supporting them. They have spent nearly a billion-and-a-half dollars on charging infrastructure, but other public and private sector players also play a pretty important role, and that includes car companies. Provincial governments can also offer their own financial rebates, whether it's EV rebates or public charging program rebates.
