EV Charging Station in Quebec Condos: Complete Guide 2026
INTRODUCTION:
Living in a condo no longer means giving up a charging station. Since Bill 67, co-owners have clear legal rights. At Procharge, we have completed dozens of condo installations in Montreal. Here's everything you need to know.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS:
Bill 67 of 2023 obliges condominium syndicates to reasonably accommodate requests for charging station installations. Your syndicate cannot refuse without valid justification. In case of unjustified refusal, legal remedies exist. Make your request in writing to keep a record.
STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS:
1. Official letter to the board of directors describing the project. 2. Request a technical file from Procharge (installation plan, charging station model, impact on the building). 3. Offer to finance all work in your parking spot. 4. If the syndicate wants a sub-meter, our electricians will plan for it. 5. In case of unjustified refusal, a mediator or lawyer specializing in co-ownership can intervene.
TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS:
Direct installation (ideal): direct access to your panel, installation similar to a house. Dedicated sub-meter: if electricity is included in common charges. Shared systems: for buildings wanting to equip multiple parking spots, smart systems distribute available power. Procharge is proficient in all these configurations.
