The Canadian oil and gas industry's retailers (e.g. Petro Canada etc.) are shifting their strategy to build out an infrastructure of EV charging stations. It will take some time due to the balance between having to deliver on gas to the current market demand but also juggling how and where to roll out said EV infrastructure. Never mind the challenges of the labour market in Alberta, but also, one challenge is how do you turn a gas station into a sexy destination to charge your car? Some interesting challenges for sure.
