Two Requirements. One Expert Partner.
British Columbia property owners now face compliance obligations from two different directions: provincial legislation governing strata properties and municipal bylaws requiring carbon emissions reporting. Missing either one puts your building at risk.
Electric Asset Inc. specializes in both, so you have one point of contact for complete compliance.
Electrical Planning Reports
A Strata Property Act Requirement
What It Is: Under BC's Strata Property Act, strata corporations must obtain an Electrical Planning Report before installing EV charging infrastructure. This isn't optional, it's legislated.
Why It Matters: Installing EV chargers without understanding your building's electrical capacity can lead to blown fuses, costly emergency upgrades, or unsafe conditions. The Electrical Planning Report protects your strata from these risks.
What's Included:
Capacity Assessment: A detailed analysis of your existing electrical panels, transformers, and service capacity.
EV Readiness Roadmap: A clear, phased plan for adding EV chargers that your electrical system can support.
Load Analysis: Identification of "hidden" capacity that could delay or avoid expensive service upgrades.
Load Analysis: Identification of "hidden" capacity that could delay or avoid expensive service upgrades.
Who Needs This:
• Strata councils considering EV charging
• Property managers responding to resident requests
• Rental Apartments & Mixed-Use
Annual GHG & Energy Reporting
A Municipal Bylaw Requirement
What It Is: Municipalities across BC are adopting Energy and Carbon Emissions Reporting bylaws. If your building falls within scope, you're required to track and report your greenhouse gas emissions annually, or face fines.
Where It Applies
Vancouver: Enforced now. Large buildings face carbon limits starting 2026.
Victoria: Reporting begins June 2026.
Saanich: Regional expansion underway.
Your Municipality: Likely next. These bylaws are spreading province-wide.
The Risk of Non-Compliance:
• Automatic fines starting at $500 per notice
• Strictly enforced deadlines with no grace period
• Zero onsite carbon pollution targets by 2040 in many jurisdictions
The Risk of Non-Compliance:
• Strata & Condominiums
• Commercial Office & Retail
• Rental Apartments & Mixed-Use
• Light Industrial Properties
