Hydro-Québec to reinforce the grid and increase capacity at Saint-Jean substation
The Electric Circuit reveals the locations of 50 fast-charge stations
to deployed by the end of 2016.
The Electric Circuit already has twelve fast-charge stations in service, to which other fast-charge stations—in Lévis, Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Granby and Magog—will be added during the year. The first 25 fast-charge stations to be commissioned will benefit from the financial support of Nissan Canada.
The Electric Circuit is the largest public charging network in Québec. It is a major initiative in the implementation of the infrastructure required to support the adoption of plug-in electric vehicles in Québec. The network comprises over 425 public charging stations, including 12 fast-charge stations, operating across 15 out of Québec’s 17 administrative regions. Since its launch in March 2012, 109 private and institutional partners have joined the Electric Circuit, and the network now has over 4,500 members.
Electric Circuit users have access to a 24/7 telephone help line run by CAA-Québec, as well as a charging station locator service. The Electric Circuit Web site theelectriccircuit.com
and the mobile app for iOS
and Android
are updated as new stations are commissioned. The Electric Circuit card also allows users to access VERnetwork’s 150 Québec charging stations.
