ChargeYYC: Helping Calgarians Install EV Chargers in Multi-Family Buildings

The City of Calgary is launching ChargeYYC, a new pilot program designed to support residents living in condos, apartments, townhouses, rowhouses, and other multi-residential buildings to install electric vehicle (EV) chargers. This initiative is part of The City’s commitment to prepare for the future of low carbon mobility.

Starting September 24, 2024, building owners and residents can apply into Phase 1 of the program for financial incentives of up to $4,000 to develop a plan to install EV chargers in their buildings. ChargeYYC aims to simplify the process and reduce the costs associated with EV charger installations, making it easier for more Calgarians to own electric vehicles.

Motor vehicles are a major contributor to Calgary’s greenhouse gas emissions, making programs like ChargeYYC essential for achieving the city’s climate goals. The first phase of the program focuses on planning, with future phases offering additional financial incentives for installation.
