Toronto, ON, December 9, 2025 \u2013 <\/strong>A newly updated guide will help the millions of Canadians who live in condominiums\u2014and those who oversee such properties\u2014overcome the unique challenges that have long limited their access to at-home electric-vehicle (EV) charging.<\/p>\n Plug\u2019n Drive and Clean Energy Canada teamed up for Make Your Condo EV Ready: The 2025 Guide for Condo Owners, Boards and Managers<\/strong>, released today. The free guide walks condo building decision-makers through the research, planning, and implementation steps needed to navigate issues such as shared ownership and install EV chargers in their parkades.<\/p>\n \u201cA maze of technical, regulatory, governance, and other barriers have long been concerns for the one-third of Canadians who live in multi-unit residential buildings (MURB) and who want to charge their electric vehicles at home overnight,\u201d said Cara Clairman, President and CEO of Plug\u2019n Drive. \u201cThis guide equips <\/strong>residents, EV drivers, future EV drivers, and building stakeholders with the practical tools and information they need to confidently navigate and lower those barriers.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWith the cost of public charging two to eight times higher than charging at home, supporting home charging access means helping more Canadians purchase an EV and unlock the thousands of dollars in annual fuel and maintenance savings that come with it,\u201d said Rachel Doran, the Executive Director of Clean Energy Canada. \u201cThis is especially relevant as the majority of Canadians aged 18 to 44 are inclined to go electric according to a recent Clean Energy Canada survey, the very group that is most likely to live in MURBs and face their unique regulatory and administrative barriers to installing a charger. This new resource can help close the condo charging gap for those who want EVs most.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cScotiabank is proud to sponsor Make Your Condo EV Ready<\/strong>,as part of our commitment to enable Canadians to adopt sustainability practices,\u201d said Kim Brand, Vice President and Head, Global Sustainable Business at Scotiabank. \u201cThrough our retail banking services, we will continue to offer financing and advisory solutions for clients looking to factor environmental considerations into their vehicle purchasing decisions which may also help save money over time.\u201d<\/p>\n Make Your Condo EV Ready<\/strong> outlines best practices, technical considerations, legal requirements, and funding opportunities\u2014with dedicated sections for British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec.
