City’s massive 3,000-residence Oakridge Park real estate project will include 500 Level 2 electric vehicle charging stations
Oakridge Park, located in the City of Vancouver, has added 500 Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to its 28-acre mixed-use project.
Featuring residential, retail, office, and community spaces, the site will accommodate 3,000 residences and more than 700,000 square feet of office space. The project is being co-developed with QuadReal Property Group and Westbank Corp.
Hypercharge Networks Corp, a supplier of EV chargers to both public and private sectors across North America, announced delivery of the chargers this month.
The project will include 300 wall-mounted, single port Level 2 chargers, and 200 overhead single port Level 2 chargers designed as space saving solution for Oakridge Park’s high-density valet parking facilities.

The overhead chargers are a unique set-up that can serve multiple parking stalls for charging vehicles without requiring dedicated stall placement.
“The project demands a smart, space-saving charging setup that maximizes efficiency while maintaining seamless accessibility. To solve this, Hypercharge’s mix of overhead and wall-mounted stations optimizes every inch of available space,” said David Bibby, President and CEO of Hypercharge, in a release.
“Space-efficient EV charging solution”
Working in partnership with Precise ParkLink, which will manage the development’s 6,000-space parking lot operations, Hypercharge’s software will incorporate into Oakridge Park’s building management platform for real-time monitoring and smart management of the charging network.
“Oakridge Park is committed to being a dynamic urban hub where sustainability and innovation meet convenience,” said Chrystal Burns, executive vice president of Canadian retail at QuadReal.
“By partnering with Hypercharge, we are ensuring that Oakridge Park is equipped with an innovative, space-efficient EV charging solution that meets the evolving needs of our residents, tenants, and visitors.”
Based in Vancouver, with offices in Toronto and Los Angeles, Hypercharge markets itself as a provider of smart EV charging technology, smart management software and problem-solving services.
The company also has an extensive public charging network of high-speed chargers accessible through Hypercharge’s proprietary app. As of late February, Hypercharge boasted sales of over 5,000 charging ports across North America and nearly 25,000 registered app users.
