More electric car chargers in Sask. give owners more chance to roam
Saskatchewan is a land of straight highways and wide empty spaces — not exactly a paradise for electric vehicles — but as chargers get more common, it’s opening up possibilities.
Petro-Canada recently opened its first EV Fast Charger in east Regina, and has plans to open three more in the province — one each in Swift Current, Moose Jaw and Whitewood — as part of its project to have charging stations coast to coast along the Trans-Canada Highway.
Other companies, like Tesla, are also in the process of building more stations in some Saskatchewan communities, like Davidson.
Jeri Nixon thinks this is great. She has owned a 2014 Nissan Leaf as her only vehicle for a couple of years now.
