"We're saying it's no longer science fiction. It's a reality. "It's also not long before high-density projects without plug-in capability will be obsolete. It will be like buying a TV today without high definition. We think for the purchasers, this project will give them a longer market advantage."

Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association president Gerry Martselos also praised Concord. "EV charging is fast becoming a checklist item for future home buyers, as the majority of EV charging will be done overnight at home," he said in a statement.
Here's the building's website.
Sounds expensive (rigging out your parking spot for recharging costs about $5,000), but still, Vancouver has been been doing a lot along these lines. Probably Canada's greenest city at the moment (love those rooftop gardens on the condo buildings).

Cost to Developer to "rig out" each parking spot with 220v plug ?
About 50 bucks.
Outrageous Greenie justified price gouging increase to purchasers
$5000.
Priceless.
Waiting until the new owners get their monthly condo fees and see a $25 "Green Charge" added.
Even more priceless.

A bit more to it than that, I think. These are big batteries.
it is a simple 220v plug . . . piece of cake.
Think your clothes dryer . . same thing.
