EV Charging
So where you live, what do you get charged for charging your EV?
I recently checked and Quebec (the whole province) has 53 fast charging (400 volts) stations from Hydro Quebec. Hydro Quebec is the province-owned electric company (they are pretty much the only people you can get electricity from). They charge C$10/hour billed per minute which is US$7.59/hour.
I am surprised many EVs cannot use the fast chargers. Only 8 can use it for the time being.

how long does it take to charge an EV typically at one of these fast charging stations and what are the 8 models that can use them? $7.59/hr seems really expensive.

I did find that it would take 30 mins to get an 80% charge with the 400v.
One thing I left out, depending where the charger is located you may need to pay for parking.
Hydro Quebec did inform me that they are working on more fast charging stations.
