Not all EVs have four wheels.
E-bikes, e-unicycles — same clean-energy idea, smaller package. The EV movement is bigger than just cars, and that's a good thing.

Good detailed info on the new large charging site now under construction at Meadows Rec Centre in Edmonton.
Unlike past Encore/Epcor L3 Chargers which had time based billing, this will be $/kWh.
Wheelchair accessible and pull through trailer stalls.

Ultra-fast charging is coming to Edmonton's Meadows Rec Centre.
@EncorbyEPCOR uses DERMS to coordinate high-power EV chargers with the grid. That means faster charging while helping utilities balance demand as EV adoption grows.

A Tesla can cost you ~70% less than what you spend on fuel in a comparable gas car
Internal combustion engines convert only 20-30% of fuel energy to motion, with 70% lost as heat.
In comparison, EVs convert 85–90% of battery energy into motion, so you need far less energy to go the same distance

This is how electric cars vs gasoline cars look under thermal imaging.

Significant increase in sales in February, but we are more interested in seeing the numbers for March and April, with the EVAP in full effect and the increase in fuel prices.

Today is the last day of the Edmonton Motorshow/Auto Experience. Be sure to stop by our booth and say hello.
Our attendee count Saturday alone exceeded total attendance last year. Interest in EVs is increasing, due in part to high fuel prices and the return of the EV incentive.

The Cybertruck, UofA electric racing project car, Leaf and Ioniq 9 are all helping us attract thousands of attendees. High gas prices and the return of the EV incentive are top of mind for the people talking to us.

We've updated our Emissions and EV/ICE Comparison tool.
Some EV owners are happily charging via solar. For everyone else, charging at home is still substantially cheaper than paying for fuel.
Just one of many tools we offer on our website.

Want to quickly and simply show someone if a given EV can travel to a given location in particular temperatures? We did, so we built Albertaev.ca/map
