Vancouver’s Everything Electric Canada Home Energy & Electric Vehicle Show
The Fully Charged Show is the “World’s No. 1 Home Energy & Electric Vehicle Show” hosted on YouTube. With over 1 million subscribers, the show has become very popular over the years and has amassed fans from all around the world.
Everything Electric is a touring “Festival of Electrification.” The series of events used to be called Fully Charged LIVE up until 2023. In 2024 the series has a new name.
Everything Electric features the hosts of the Fully Charged Show and so much more. It’s a content-heavy event with live talks and sessions to enjoy. Topics covered this year included electric vehicle tips, energy efficiency and heat pumps. The Home Energy Advice Team was also on site providing advice for both indoor and outdoor energy solutions.
The live show offers a wonderful chance to get a closer look at a wide range of electric vehicles. Guests can test drive new cars and check out some that aren’t even available in Canada yet. There are also e-bikes and micro-mobility tracks to ride on. The exhibition offers activities for all ages as well as lots of learning opportunities.
Automakers at the event in 2024 included Audio, Edison Motors, Ford, Hyundai, KIA, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Volkswagen, Volvo and other electric car manufacturers. One of our favourite e-bike brands was there too – North Vancouver-based OHM Bikes!
