EV Charging Stations from Calgary to Lake Louise

225 charging locations are mapped within 15 km of the 183 km drive from Calgary, Alberta to Lake Louise, Alberta. Each charger is listed with its connectors, its rated output where we hold one, and how far along the route it sits.

How many charging stops you need, Calgary to Lake Louise

Stops are the number of times a car must add range to cover 183 km, assuming 70% of rated range is usable between stops (the buffer that highway speeds, load and arrival reserve actually take). Formula: stops = ceil(183 / usable range) − 1.

Chargers on the Calgary to Lake Louise 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.

225 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 172 are counted in the tables on this page.

Can I drive from Calgary to Lake Louise in an EV?
Yes, on the chargers we have mapped. The longest stretch without a DC fast charger inside the 15 km corridor is 78 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 to 1 charging stops.
What charging connectors are available on the Calgary to Lake Louise route?
J1772 (Type 1) at 165 locations, CCS1 at 44 locations, NACS (Tesla) at 31 locations, CHAdeMO 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 Lake Louise drive?
It is the 78 km stretch after Petro-Canada, running to Lake Louise. Charge to cover at least that distance before entering it.
Which charging networks operate on the Calgary to Lake Louise 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 143 locations have no operator recorded in our dataset.
