FLO About Us Image

Foster A Sustainable Community.  Support Local Business.

Integrate electric vehicle charging stations on your streets and at public buildings to accelerate EV adoption and build a cleaner, healthier, and low-carbon community. Make sure your city is ready for the transition to electric mobility and support the local economy at the same time.

Help Local Business Thrive
By choosing FLO, your public charging infrastructure becomes part of Canada’s largest EV charging network, with thousands of charging stations operating throughout the country. Your stations will be seen by over 80% of Canadian EV drivers—from both in and out of town—on FLO's interactive map and mobile app.
Deploying public charging infrastructure helps local retailers, as 92% of EV drivers spend money at nearby shops and restaurants while they charge. And to ensure drivers benefit from a seamless experience, FLO monitors your charging stations in real time and provide 24/7 bilingual user support.

Allowing flexibility and scalability
As more and more people make the switch to electric mobility in the future, your charging infrastructure will need to grow at the same pace. Our solutions are designed to be easily scalable, allowing more stations to be added as demand for charging increases, while keeping installation costs to a minimum.
Whether you are looking to deploy charging stations curbside or near public buildings, such as city hall, civic centres or recreational facilities, FLO charging stations will fit any type of location.
 
Simple management in a few clicks
Easily configure your charging stations’ pricing and billing method. You can either choose to offer free charging or set user fees to generate revenue for each charging session.
FLO provides you with detailed data reports, accessible at all times from a dedicated online portal, to monitor charging station usage and energy consumption. Get all the data you need to make well-informed decisions.

Made in Canada, built for Canada
Our charging stations are proudly manufactured in Canada—and designed for our tough climate. Our products are certified for both indoor and outdoor installation, as they have been tested in the harshest weather conditions and the coldest temperatures.
