Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

The City of Brampton is pleased to offer electric vehicle charging stations in municipal parking lots across the city to help make electric vehicles more convenient for residents and businesses in Brampton.

Brampton’s electric car charging stations are free for the public to use. Normal parking fees apply in pay parking lots.

Fine for illegal use of electric vehicle charging stations/parking spaces.

As of January 2021, a new legislative change has been implemented across Ontario to ensure electric vehicle (EV) charging spaces are used by vehicles that are plugged-in only. This change is in effect in all City of Brampton EV charging stations as of January 2021.

The fine is for non-electric vehicle and use by EVs that are not plugged-in using these designated parking spaces. On conviction, vehicle owners are subject to a $125 fine if they:

park a non-electric vehicle in a designated EV charging space marked by the prescribed sign
park an electric vehicle that is not plugged-in at an EV charging space marked by the prescribed sign

These parking spaces are reserved for electric vehicles while charging. They are clearly marked with green paint and signs.

As part of the City of Brampton’s commitment to environmental sustainability, we hope that providing the infrastructure to support electric vehicles will encourage more residents to adopt this environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional cars, and lower their carbon footprint.

Brampton appreciates the support of Partners in Project Green, who provided a grant toward the installation of many of the City’s charging stations. The solar-powered carport at the Brampton Soccer Centre was funded by the Province of Ontario's Electric Vehicle Chargers Ontario program.

What type of charging stations are they?: All the stations are level-2 charging stations, which can fully charge a vehicle in 3 to 6 hours, depending on vehicle type.
Why is the City installing them in municipal parking lots?: These charging stations are being installed as part of the City of Brampton’s commitment to environmental sustainability. Helping to make electric vehicles more convenient for residents and businesses in Brampton will encourage more residents to adopt this environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional cars, and lower their carbon footprint.
