EV Charger Rate Adjustment Effective September 15

Starting Monday, September 15, rates for using City of St. John’s Level 2 EV Charging Stations will be adjusted.

This update will help sustain the EV charging program by covering the costs of electricity, maintenance, and operations, while also building a reserve to support future charger replacements and upgrades. Fees are reviewed annually to ensure they remain aligned with actual expenses.

Charger fees will continue to apply in addition to parking fees, where required. All charges are automatically processed through the City’s paid parking app, PayByPhone.

This change ensures the City’s EV charging program remains reliable, financially sustainable, and ready to grow with the City’s needs.
