YS, If your employer allows free charging at work....your plan might be a "GO".
That said, in Regina, there are 37 level 2 chargers that are totally free.
I'm curious--do folks with EV's plug in each and every day? (I would be doing so because my access would be level 1.)
My consumption is about 110 kwh per month. The cost of the power is about $14. My bill is a little less than $45 per month. Talk about being penalized for conservation! Effectively, I'm paying $0.45 per kwh.
If we are parked outside in winter we plug in everyday just so the pre heat doesn’t draw from the battery. Otherwise we tend to plug in once or twice a week or when the battery falls below 50 percent. We tend to only charge to about 80 or 90 percent. 100 percent before toad trips...which were seldom during Covid but getting more common now. Woohoo.
