Parked Tesla explodes, kills man

It is very sad. EV fires and explosions can be unforgiving. Hopefully, the battery safety will be improved over the next few years.

Demand for electric vehicle chargers exceeding what’s available: NB Power

In 2022, New Brunswick registered 571 fully electric vehicles, up from 270 the year prior.

According to StatsCan, it also includes 1,530 hybrid-electric vehicles, which share both an electric battery and gas. An additional 290 plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles were also accounted for, up from 202 the year prior.

The number of chargers pales in comparison to the number of electric vehicles registered in the last year, keeping in mind many people who buy an EV also get a home charger.

NB Power said it has 80 level 2 chargers, which can range between six to eight hours for a full charge on an EV, and 31 level 3 chargers, taking only 40 to 60 minutes to give a car 80-per cent battery.
