Quebec will finally be installing a few next year, but has cited high cost as a reason delaying their deployment. Therefore, I'm wondering why they can't get Federal funds as well, in order to speed up the process.
The five or six quick chargers scheduled to be installed this year on A40 between Montreal and Quebec City will all be dual standard CCS/CHAdeMO.kcarmich wrote:
maybe they are delaying because they dont want to have to deploy CHAdeMO and Frankenplug chargers.
right ... as I said ... they didn't want to have to duplicate their effort by installing chademo chargers then having to install a second charger when the new Frankenplug standard chargers were available. The ABB DC chargers that support both standards with 1 unit, those wont be available till about May.Berlino wrote: The five or six quick chargers scheduled to be installed this year on A40 between Montreal and Quebec City will all be dual standard CCS/CHAdeMO.
