EV charging in Mississauga, Ontario
Mississauga operates a growing set of municipal Level 2 chargers with standardized pricing and idle-fee rules. The City publishes locations, current fees and enforcement details, and notes there are no City-owned DC fast stations yet. Provincial and federal programs—Ontario’s EV ChargeON (primarily outside major cities) and NRCan’s ZEVIP—support broader public deployments across the region. ([City of Mississauga][1])
Most public charging is concentrated around City Centre/Square One, civic facilities, college campuses and waterfront destinations, with additional coverage near retail corridors and major highways. Common operators in Ontario include FLO, ChargePoint, Tesla and Ivy; drivers can verify current availability using NRCan’s national station map. ([Natural Resources Canada][2])
PlugMapper aggregates verified municipal, provincial and federal datasets to improve accuracy on hours, connector types and fees, and flags sites without DC fast options at City facilities to reduce detours for time-sensitive trips. ([City of Mississauga][1])

Market insights shaping local charging
Publishing $0.30/kWh and idle-fee rules across City sites reduces ambiguity for drivers and encourages turnover at high-demand facilities. ([City of Mississauga][1])
Without City-owned DC fast, time-sensitive charging depends on private corridor sites; mapping both reduces detours. ([City of Mississauga][1])
Ontario’s program steers public-charging funds to communities outside large cities, complementing private and federal deployments in the GTA. ([Ontario][4])
Recurring federal calls for proposals sustain public, workplace and MURB installations, supporting regional reliability through 2029. ([Natural Resources Canada][5])
