This is the best summary I could come up with:

In an emailed statement to CBC News, Jay Massie, ATCO Electric's VP of northern development and Indigenous relations, said the need for infrastructure upgrades for Level 2 chargers can vary significantly.

"It is important to understand that a power system's costs, maintaining and replacing all electrical infrastructure, are set in approved rates, and borne by all customers," Massie said.

Jeff Philipp, who also drives an electric vehicle in Yellowknife, told CBC News in an email a Level 2 charger in the North is like a garage: "very nice to have, but not essential," he wrote.

Mark Heyck, the executive director of the Arctic Energy Alliance in Yellowknife, agrees Level 2 chargers are not necessary for owning an electric vehicle in the N.W.T.

Heyck and Massie both urged people considering installing an electric vehicle charger at home to contact an electrician.

Heyck has heard anecdotally of people who don't have adequate electric service for the installation of Level 2 chargers at home.
