Charge+ application and contact details updated
The Charge+ program pages were revised with updated application steps, contact details, and supplier directory information.
The Charge+ program pages now show a rewritten application flow, including expression of interest, identification of needs, planning, prequalification, analysis and confirmation, signing of the agreement, execution of the work, claim, and receipt of the grant. The supporting call-for-interest page now presents a real submission form, and the supplier directory has been expanded with updated contact emails and phone numbers; the program amount remains up to $100,000 per application and the cost share remains up to 50% of total project costs. The eligibility wording was also rephrased for private-sector members and major partners, public-sector collaborators in Quebec, and charging-station requirements, but the core audience and project scope appear largely the same. Important dates still show eligible expenses as of February 7, 2022 and program end December 31, 2026.
