What drivers have written

“This BC Hydro charging station is definitely one of the better setups for EV users because it has a good number of DC fast charging stalls available. It is nice not having to worry as much about long wait times or arriving to find every charger occupied. The location is convenient, and having multiple chargers makes the experience much smoother compared to smaller stations with only one or two stalls. My only disappointment is the charging speed. The chargers are advertised as 180 kW, but during my charging sessions I never saw more than around 134 kW. While that is still decent, it is noticeably below the claimed speed and makes charging take longer than expected, especially for users trying to get back on the road quickly. Overall, still a solid and reliable charging stop with good infrastructure, but I hope BC Hydro can improve the actual charging performance so drivers can consistently get closer to the advertised speeds.” — Siavash Rastegari, 3 months ago

“Has been reliable for me twice in the last three weeks. There are a lot of J1772 and only a few Fast chargers. Provides about 72-100kw. There is a restaurant nearby with some decent coffee and a place to work while you charge.” — Rolf de Bruin, 7 months ago

“The 3 main chargers are usually full, and I often wait. Tesla chargers nearby stay unused and could be made universal. The 180 kW charger used to give 120 kW but now only reaches 70–80 kW. Good station overall but needs upgrades and better management.” — Mehdi Emamifar, 10 months ago
