Expanding EV charger infrastructure in Tecumseh

Soon, there will be six new electric vehicle chargers in the Town of Tecumseh.

The new chargers, paid for through the province's EV ChargeON Program, will be located at Tecumseh Town Hall and Tecumseh CADA Library.

“For EV drivers, finding a charging station that’s close by and available can mean the difference between a quick stop and a time-consuming detour that takes time away from work, school or family,” said Andrew Dowie, MPP for Windsor–Tecumseh. “I’m proud to be delivering six new EV charging stations in Tecumseh to make life easier and more convenient for drivers.”

All of the chargers will be Level 3 fast charger ports.

“With more than 201,000 electric vehicles on the road in Ontario, we’re putting shovels in the ground to build more charging stations and make life easier for drivers,” said Stephen Lecce, Minister of Energy and Electrification. “That includes a focus on smaller and underserved communities across our province where we are providing more certainty for parents and workers during their commutes.”
