加拿大有望拥有第一届跨大陆电力高速公路，前国有能源公司Petro-Canada宣布了计划，将在2020年沿4,860英里的Trans-Canada高速公路推出50个高功率电动汽车充电站。

现在是位于卡尔加里的巨型Suncor Energy的一部分，Petro-Canada将于今年春季在网络上开始工作，从新斯科舍省延伸到不列颠哥伦比亚省。该公司没有宣布充电站的确切位置，也没有宣布建筑成本或承包商。18luck.cub

“With more than 1,800 retail and wholesale locations across the country, we have the network in place to build Canada’s first electric highway, providing coast-to-coast charging for our customers,” said Kris Smith, Suncor executive vice president for downstream markets, in a statement.

Each of the charging stations or stops will feature two high-powered chargers and two waiting spots.

根据Petro-Canada的说法，200千瓦的充电器可以在30分钟内将电动汽车的电池榨汁至80％。Petro-Canada说，充电器还将有能力升级到350 kW，并配备Chademo和CCS/SAE连接器，以支持广泛的电动汽车。

汽车评论和排名Cars.com说，电动车司机将不得不等待类似的海岸到海岸方便。

It says the U.S. Energy Dept. website can theoretically plot a route from New York to Los Angeles, but drivers would face long stretches with no charge stations or ones that only Tesla-produced vehicles can use.

许多人也缺乏石油加拿大充电器的力量。Cars.com说，充电可能需要几个小时到几天的“传统”充电器。

“We strenuously … would not recommend anyone actually attempt to drive this route in an electric car; it would take a long, long … long time,” says reviewer Brian Wong.
