EV Charger Installation in Toronto

Neighbourhoods We Serve in Toronto

We install EV chargers throughout Toronto, including the Annex, Forest Hill, Lawrence Park, Rosedale, Moore Park, Chaplin Estates, Deer Park, Midtown, Leslieville, Riverdale, The Beaches, Danforth, Little Italy, Roncesvalles, Parkdale, High Park, Junction, Swansea, Baby Point, Bloor West Village, Trinity Bellwoods, King West, Liberty Village, Cabbagetown, Davisville Village, Yonge and Eglinton, Davisville, St. Clair West, and many more.

Toronto is one of Canada's largest EV markets. With over 3 million residents and a growing fleet of EVs on city streets, demand for home charging installations is accelerating rapidly. We work across all Toronto property types: Victorian and Edwardian semis, century row houses, post-war bungalows, 1980s and 1990s detached homes, townhomes, and condos.

Each property type in Toronto has unique installation challenges. A 1920s Forest Hill home presents very different electrical considerations than a 2010 condo in Liberty Village — and we have the experience to handle both correctly.

Toronto Hydro & EV Charging in Toronto

Toronto Hydro is Canada's largest municipally-owned electrical utility, serving 762,000 customers across all of Toronto. Toronto Hydro distributes electricity from Hydro One's transmission grid to every home and business in the city.

All EV charger installations in Toronto require an electrical permit through the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA). We handle the permit application, complete the installation, and schedule the ESA inspection — all included in our service. For service upgrades (100A to 200A), we coordinate with Toronto Hydro for the meter pull.

Toronto Hydro uses time-of-use (TOU) pricing. Off-peak rates (nights and weekends) are significantly cheaper than on-peak rates. We configure every charger for off-peak scheduled charging — a simple step that saves Toronto EV owners hundreds of dollars per year.

Condo EV Charger Installation in Toronto

Toronto has hundreds of thousands of condo units, and EV charger installation in condos is one of the most under-served needs in the market. Most electricians don't have the expertise for condo EV work — which involves navigating condo corporation rules, shared electrical infrastructure, and proper sub-metering.

We use a DCC (Distributed Consumer Connection) model for condo EV installations. This approach installs a sub-meter at your parking spot, ensuring all charging costs are billed directly to you — not to the building's common area electrical account. It's fair to the building, fair to other residents, and gives you full control of your EV charging.

The process involves working with your condo board and property management to get approval, submitting the necessary documentation, and completing the installation in the parking structure. We've navigated this process in multiple Toronto condo buildings and can help you understand what's needed for your specific building.

If you've been told by your condo board that EV charger installation isn't possible, talk to us. In most cases, it is possible — it just needs to be done correctly.

Panel Upgrades in Toronto

Toronto's older housing stock — especially pre-war and post-war homes in established neighbourhoods — commonly has 60A or 100A electrical panels that are simply not adequate for modern electrical loads, especially when adding an EV charger.

We perform a detailed load calculation for every Toronto home before recommending a panel upgrade. If your panel can safely support an EV circuit, we install it without an upgrade. If a panel upgrade is needed, we quote it transparently and complete it cleanly.

Panel upgrades in Toronto also address aging fuse boxes, aluminum wiring connections, and undersized service conductors — all safety concerns that come up frequently in the city's older housing stock.
