EV charging analysis

In a cold climate, where EV range can drop by 20-30% in winter, the absence of local infrastructure makes routine driving a significant challenge. Without any estimated EVs on the road, the city is effectively at a pre-adoption stage. Until stations are installed, Hamiltonians face a reliance on home charging or neighboring hubs, which limits the practicality of electric vehicles for daily commuting and errands.
