We support the transition to low-emission electric vehicles (EVs) as a way to help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
To help support this, we have public-use EV charging stations at many City of Guelph facilities. Enjoy the downtown vibe, catch a hockey tournament, or take a walk in the park while your EV is charging and giving you the additional range to see more of Guelph!

Using the EV Chargers
To use the EV charging stations, you can download the free FLO EV Charging Network app to your smartphone and follow the instructions or you can order a FLO access card by visiting the FLO website and following the “Getting started” instructions.
Electric vehicles are only permitted to park while the vehicle is being charged. Users are asked to move their vehicles when charging is complete.
Tickets can be issued for:
- parking a non-electric vehicle in a designated EV charging space
- parking an EV in a designated EV charging space that is not plugged in
Ticketed vehicle owners may be subject to a fine of $125 under section 30.2 of the Highway Traffic Act.
