How many EV charging stations are there between Calgary and Banff?

Zevvy has 223 charging locations mapped within 15 km of the 129 km route. 53 locations have DC fast charging; the rest are AC or not recorded.

Can I drive from Calgary to Banff in an EV?

Yes, on the chargers we have mapped. The longest stretch without a DC fast charger inside the 15 km corridor is 29 km, so a car that can cover that between stops can make the trip. Across the 250-550 km range bands below, that works out at 0 charging stops.

What charging connectors are available on the Calgary to Banff route?

J1772 (Type 1) at 165 locations, CCS1 at 44 locations, CHAdeMO at 29 locations, NACS (Tesla) at 29 locations and CCS2 at 1 location. Each location is counted once per connector type it offers.

Where is the longest gap without a fast charger on the Calgary to Banff drive?

It is the 29 km stretch after FLO Charging Station, before Electrify Canada Charging Station. Charge to cover at least that distance before entering it.

Which charging networks operate on the Calgary to Banff route?

ChargePoint (27 locations), flo (22 locations), SWTCH - Charge Everywhere (12 locations), Tesla (Tesla-only charging) (7 locations), InCharge (5 locations) and Tesla (including non-tesla) (4 locations), plus 3 smaller operators. The remaining 141 locations have no operator recorded in our dataset.

How many charging stops you need, Calgary to Banff

Stops are the number of times a car must add range to cover 129 km, assuming 70% of rated range is usable between stops (the buffer that highway speeds, load and arrival reserve actually take). Formula: stops = ceil(129 / usable range) − 1.

Rated range	Usable between stops	Enough chargers on route
250 km	175 km	No stop needed
350 km	245 km	No stop needed
450 km	315 km	No stop needed
550 km	385 km	No stop needed

Chargers on the Calgary to Banff corridor

Ordered by distance from Calgary along the driving route, not in a straight line. “Off route” is the perpendicular distance from the road to the charger.

223 charging locations sit inside the corridor. The 53 with DC fast charging are listed here, because those are the stops that matter on a highway drive; the other 170 are counted in the tables on this page.
