EV charging basics
Before you visit an EV charging station, there is some general information to know.
There are three charging connectors used at North American EV charging stations:
- NACS (North American Charging Standard): Also known as the Tesla charging standard and SAE J3400. The NACS is mainly used by Tesla models. However, Ford, GM, and Rivian have announced that in 2025, their EVs will start using NACS connectors. More manufacturers are expected to follow suit. And in 2022, Tesla updated the design to an open standard.
- J-1772: This is currently the standard option for Level 1 and Level 2 charging for non-Tesla electric vehicles.
- CCS (Combined Charging Standard): Uses the J-1772 connector with two extra DC FAST Charging pins. CCS is considered the industry standard for DC Fast Charging (Level 3).
The CHAdeMO connector type is widely used in Japan and is rarely seen in North America.
When charging, be aware of your EV’s power intake. This is the power output pulled from the charger by the EV. This may be limited by how much power the battery can withstand. The power intake can also dictate which charging level you can use. Check your EV’s manual to see its power intake level.
How long does it take to charge an EV?
There are several factors that influence charge times, such as charging level, vehicle model, battery condition, tire pressure, and weather conditions. Depending on these factors, it may take a few minutes or a few hours to charge your EV.
How many charging stations are there in Canada?
According to our research, there are approximately 13,000 public charging stations in Canada. This number is expected to steadily increase over the next 10-20 years.
