What is an MJR electric EV ready plan?
If you are considering an electric vehicle, but aren’t sure if your home can handle it, consider an MJR electric EV ready plan. This plan can help you install a home charging station, wiring, and more in a way that is safe and reliable. If you’re looking to get an electric vehicle (EV), you might be wondering if your home can handle it. Most people just want to make sure that their home is safe, whether that means installing a charging station or making sure the wiring is up to code. But there is more to it than that. Depending on what kind of vehicle you get and what your home is like, you could need to update your home’s electrical system, too.
How to get an MJR electric EV ready plan?
These are the 5 steps to getting EV Charger grants from BC Hydro and as a BC Hydro certified partner, MJR Electric will take you through each step.
- MJR will come onsite to complete an EV Ready Plan for your strata. This report will detail what amount of EV Charging your MURB’s existing electrical system can support and the complete cost to purchase and install EV Chargers and infrastructure to each parking stall or a selected area.
- The EV Ready Plan costs up to $4,000 ( the majority of plans we prepare are $3,000- $3,500 + GST) and the BC Hydro incentive rebates 75% of the plan’s cost up to $3,000 directly back to your strata. You will now know what the total cost to your strata and individual units will be and you can make an informed decision about EV Charging for your building.
- Your strata submits MJR’s EV Ready Plan to BC Hydro for approval.
- Upon BC Hydro Approval, your strata reviews and approves the plan based on BC Hydro EV Ready Infrastructure rebate and proceeds with Infrastructure upgrades – which usually includes panel, breaker upgrades and load management systems, in addition to running conduit and wire to the determined stalls. BC Hydro rebates up to $600 per installed charger, up to $80,000 (133 parking stalls).
- MJR installs your selected chargers. If your strata opts for Level 2 networked EV chargers MJR will install them and BC Hydro will rebate up to $1,400 per charger to a maximum of $14,000.
Your strata submits the certifications, permits, BC Hydro forms and invoicing all provided by MJR to BC Hydro for reimbursement.
