The Town of Hay River in Canada’s Northwest Territories has its first DC Fast Charger with the installation and activation of two FLO 100kW SmartDC fast chargers and two FLO CoRe+ MAX level 2 chargers.
NT Energy deployed the stations as the latest addition to a planned corridor that will run from Yellowknife to the Northwest Territories and Alberta border. FLO charging stations in Fort Smith and Behchokǫ̀ will open before the end of the year.
“The addition of an EV charging station to the electricity infrastructure in the Town of Hay River will help encourage residents to consider purchasing an electric vehicle when they are next in the market for a new car or truck. The Town of Hay River recently announced that its entire Municipal Enforcement fleet is now 100% electric, and the charging stations will be able to further support those vehicles,” said Cory Strang, President and CEO of Northwest Territories Power Corp (NTPC), in an NTPC statement.
The new stations are located in front of the NTPC head office on Capital Drive. They will be publicly accessible with charging available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Fees have been determined by NT Energy and are available on the FLO app or FLO.com.
The FLO SmartDC charger is a durable, reliable fast charger built to withstand temperatures from minus 40°F to 122°F.
FLO’s CoRe+ MAX charger delivers a maximum power output of 19.2 kW, charges up to 2.7x faster than a typical Level 2 charging station and delivers the most power output available to a Level 2 charger.
FLO will also oversee servicing and equipment maintenance in Hay River.
