Expert advice — all in one place

Navigating the rebate programs, the requirements of the Strata Property Act, and learning about charging systems can be daunting. Since 2016, VISOA (Vancouver Island Strata Owners Association) has been delivering workshops to help stratas plan projects to install EV charging systems — they’ve done the hard work for you. Now they’ve partnered with the CleanBC - Go Electric EV Charger Rebate Program to deliver an eight-part webinar series for all BC stratas.

Wendy Wall, President of VISOA’s Board of Directors notes that, “We understand how stratas work — all their nuances, complexities and challenges — and we know that each one is unique. We can help strata owners and councils understand every step of the process.”

Having an expert in your corner makes for an easy and informed path forward.
