Hello Canadians,
I sent Hydro Ottawa a message using their contact form. Basically I was suggesting to have a rebate program for EV owners similar to what they are currently offering for new homes for their efficient appliances.
I mentioned that electric vehicles are normally charged during off-peak hours at night, so there is no impact or an overload to the electricity usage of the city. Actually all the extra power generated by Hydro companies is wasted during late night hours since it's really expensive for them to store it or to lower production rate. I also mentioned that the market of electric vehicles is growing 100% every year, so I hope they consider helping EV owners help the environment. (Make sure you contact the conservation group of your Hydro company)
I think you can do the same wherever you're. Even if you are rich and you don't care about a few dollars discounted from your monthly bill, it a matter of principle. I bought a 100% electric vehicle because of what I believe in and I'm sure you believe in the same principle.
Let me know what you think.
Regards,
Khalid
