The electric car charging stations at the Sayward Junction are impacted by new higher fees for electric car users. Operated by BC Hydro, the units have started charging idle fees for cars that remain plugged in after they are fully charged. Users of the BC Hydro app can receive notifications of a full charge, and there is a 5 minute grace period to unplug before accruing additional fees.
For Sayward electric car charger users that do not remain on the property during charging may be shocked to find unexpected fees due to the lack of cell coverage preventing app notifications from getting through.
