Was doing some digging online into why distribution fees on electricity keeps going up and came across this:

No wonder there are so few EV chargers in Alberta, ATCOs rates make it impossible for a business to be profitable setting up a standalone charger. Maybe if you could get away with using electricity from an existing service.

I've heard some people in Grande Prairie say they'd switch to EVs if we could get a fast charger in Whitecourt, I now see why one hasn't been built.
