Durham Region EV Charger Install Demand (Q1–Q3 2025)

This report highlights battery-electric vehicle (BEV) growth across Durham Region. BEVs require charging infrastructure, making this data a strong indicator of real home-charger installation demand.

BEV Growth by City (Q1–Q3 2025)

EV adoption in Durham Region isn’t spiking — it’s building steadily, and that’s exactly what creates reliable work for EV charger installation in Durham.

Between Q1 and Q3 of 2025, 1,069 new battery-electric vehicles were added across the region, with Q2 and Q3 showing almost identical growth. That kind of consistency matters. It tells us this isn’t a short-term trend or incentive-driven bump — it’s ongoing, structural demand.

For homeowners, owning a BEV almost always leads to one decision: installing a home EV charger. Public chargers are helpful, but they don’t replace the convenience and reliability of a Level 2 charger at home. That’s why BEV growth is one of the clearest indicators of real-world EV charger installation demand in Durham Region.

The bulk of this demand is concentrated in Oshawa, Whitby, Pickering, and Ajax. These cities consistently add the most new BEVs and have the right housing mix for residential installs. For electricians offering EV charger installation in Oshawa, Whitby, Pickering, or Ajax, these areas represent the strongest and most predictable opportunity.

At the same time, surrounding communities like Clarington, Uxbridge, and Scugog are showing quieter but meaningful growth. While the volumes are smaller, these areas often come with less competition — making them attractive for installers looking to expand their service area.

Overall, the data paints a clear picture: EV charger installation in Durham is not a one-off opportunity. It’s a growing, repeatable market driven by steady BEV adoption and homeowner behavior. Installers who establish visibility now are positioning themselves to capture consistent inbound demand as EV ownership continues to rise into 2026 and beyond.
