Elocity Technologies Inc. is proud to be recognized in FieldEx’s authoritative 2026 guide to the Top 12 EV Charger Distributors in Canada — a must-read resource for developers, property managers, utilities, and fleet operators building commercial EV charging infrastructure across the country.
In this article, we break down what the recognition means, why Canada’s EV charging landscape demands intelligent software-driven solutions, and how Elocity’s full-stack platform is helping operators from Victoria, BC to Halifax, NS deliver compliant, scalable, and profitable charging networks.
Elocity Featured in FieldEx’s Top 12 EV Charger Distributors in Canada (2026)
FieldEx — a leading field service management platform for EV charging operators — published its comprehensive 2026 guide ranking the top EV charger distributors commanding the Canadian market. Elocity Technologies Inc. was featured as the Smart Charging Intelligence Layer, recognized for its full-stack approach combining hardware compatibility, advanced load management software, and open-protocol interoperability.
In their 2026 guide, FieldEx specifically cited Elocity’s key differentiators for the Canadian market:
- Full OCPP Certification: The first Canadian company certified by the Open Charge Alliance, enabling true hardware-agnostic deployments across 50+ charger models.
- Canada’s Largest Multi-Residential Deployment: Elocity powers an 8 MW managed load system supporting 1,212 smart chargers at Richmond Centre in British Columbia — recognized as a 2026 Clean50 Top Project.
- Utility-Grade Load Management: Purpose-built for utilities, commercial real estate portfolios, and large-scale fleet operators building EV networks at scale.
- Full-Stack Intelligence: Combining hardware compatibility, CPMS software, and advanced load management in a single ecosystem — eliminating the need for multiple vendor relationships.
FieldEx rates Elocity as the best-fit solution for: multi-residential developments, utility-integrated charging networks, commercial real estate portfolios, and large-scale fleet or public charging deployments.
The Top EV Charger Distributors in Canada: Where Elocity Fits In
The FieldEx guide segments Canada’s EV charger distribution market into three categories: national titans with coast-to-coast scale (Guillevin International, Nedco, Wesco Canada), provincial powerhouses with regional dominance (Lumen in Quebec, Gescan in Western Canada, Elocity Technologies, Gerrie Electric in Ontario, and EB Horsman in BC), and specialists and independents (Graybar Canada, City Electric Supply, Franklin Empire, and Electrozad).
Elocity’s position among the provincial powerhouses reflects a key market reality: the most complex, high-value EV deployments in Canada — dense urban multifamily developments, utility-integrated networks, and large commercial fleet depots — require more than hardware. They require intelligent software that can manage load, ensure compliance, process billing, and scale without costly panel upgrades. That is precisely where Elocity operates.
Elocity’s HIEV Smart Charging Platform: Built for Canada
Elocity’s core offering — the HIEV Charge Point Management System (CPMS) — is engineered specifically for the demands of the Canadian commercial EV market:
- Dynamic Load Management: Real-time intelligent distribution of available electrical capacity across all connected chargers, eliminating the need for expensive transformer upgrades in grid-constrained markets like Metro Vancouver and downtown Toronto.
- OCPP-Open Architecture: Full interoperability with 50+ hardware brands giving operators and developers the freedom to choose best-in-class hardware without platform lock-in.
- Utility Integration: Native APIs for BC Hydro, Hydro-Québec, and provincial utility programs, enabling demand response participation and time-of-use optimization to reduce peak demand charges.
- Bilingual Interface: Full French and English support across the HIEV dashboard, driver apps, and reporting modules — meeting Quebec’s language requirements and federal bilingual standards for national networks.
- ZEVIP-Ready Reporting: Automated generation of the hardware and energy performance documentation required for ZEVIP and provincial grant applications.
- White-Label Capabilities: Utilities, property managers, and charge point operators can deploy the HIEV platform under their own brand, creating a seamless experience for end users.
Frequently Asked Questions: EV Charging in Canada
1. What makes Elocity different from other EV charging software providers in Canada?
Elocity is the Canadian company with full OCPP certification from the Open Charge Alliance, making its HIEV platform truly hardware-agnostic. This means operators can deploy the best available hardware for their specific site requirements without being locked into a proprietary ecosystem. Elocity also offers native utility integration, bilingual support, and ZEVIP-ready reporting — features purpose-built for the Canadian regulatory and grid environment.
2. What is the HIEV platform?
HIEV (High-Intelligence EV) is Elocity’s Charge Point Management System (CPMS) — a cloud-based software platform that manages EV charging networks at scale. Key capabilities include dynamic load management, OCPP-open hardware integration, real-time energy monitoring, automated billing, driver management, and utility demand response. HIEV is designed for commercial real estate portfolios, multifamily developments, utilities, and large fleet operators.
3. Does Elocity support ZEVIP grant applications?
Yes. Elocity’s HIEV platform generates the hardware specifications, energy performance data, and compliance documentation typically required to support federal ZEVIP and provincial grant applications in BC, Ontario, and Quebec. Elocity’s team works with developers and installers to ensure their EV infrastructure projects meet grant eligibility requirements.
4. What is Measurement Canada and why does it matter for EV charging?
Measurement Canada is the federal agency that certifies the accuracy of commercial measurement devices, including EV charger electricity meters. In Canada, charging customers per kilowatt-hour (kWh) legally requires Measurement Canada-certified hardware. Without this certification, operators must use flat fees or time-based billing, which significantly reduces revenue potential. Elocity’s platform integrates with Measurement Canada-certified chargers to support compliant kWh billing across commercial deployments.
5. How does Automatic Load Management (ALMS) work in Canadian multifamily buildings?
ALMS software intelligently distributes a building’s available electrical panel capacity across multiple EV chargers in real time. Instead of upgrading transformers or panels — a process that can take 12 to 18 months in grid-constrained markets like Metro Vancouver — building operators can add multiple chargers to existing electrical infrastructure immediately. Elocity’s HIEV platform includes sophisticated ALMS capabilities that optimize load distribution while ensuring fair, reliable charging for all residents.
