Conservation Halton Adds 18 New EV Chargers Across Milton-Area Parks

Conservation Halton has installed 18 new electric vehicle charging stations across five conservation areas, including several stops popular with Milton families.

What Happened

According to MiltonToday.ca and FM101 Milton Now, Conservation Halton has expanded its EV charging network with new stations at Area 8, Hilton Falls, Kelso and Mountsberg in Milton, along with Mount Nemo in Burlington.

Combined with two existing chargers already at Conservation Halton's administrative office, the organization now runs 20 EV charging stations across its properties.

Key Details

• Area 8 offers two charging ports near the main building

• Hilton Falls has four ports near the park entrance gate

• Kelso has six ports at the Visitor Centre and Boat Rentals parking lot

• Mountsberg has four ports at its Visitor Centre parking lot

• Mount Nemo in Burlington rounds out the network with two ports

• All stations are Level 2 J-1772 chargers rated at 7.2 kW

• The project was partly funded through Natural Resources Canada's Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program; chargers at the administrative office were donated by Eaton

Community Impact

For Milton residents who drive electric vehicles, the new stations make it easier to charge up while visiting some of the area's most popular outdoor spots, from paddling at Kelso to hiking at Hilton Falls. The expansion also reflects a broader push toward sustainable transportation across Halton's rural conservation areas.

Background
