40,000 Supercharger stalls

#1

Post by dan_b »

Tesla now operates 40,000 Supercharger stalls worldwide at 4,000 sites. That's a hefty investment in DC charging infrastructure.
Do we know how many Open Access sites/stalls there are now - It's still a trial programme but seems to be going pretty well as far as I can tell?

Will be interesting to see how tesla bays in those french car parks will operate as solar cover, & how soon.
Will tesla then solar pave the sky on a bit of it, or lay mass coverage (you are familiar with the hypermarche bays & teslas small corner in Sallanche (for example) I think dan, will it mean a big sielar takeover by tesla, or working with others? ..could be good, could be bad, would need some cast iron guarantee from a partner with too much hostage potential on energy pump prices, even if it was govt, makes.me think tesla will buy out car parks & be first (in france anyway) to go big on the tesla.stalls + open use charging market, making queing a thing of the past for a good few years to come.

Would like to be a fly on the wall in tesla europe right now.
(for multiple reasons)

Bit of an ecotricity electric highway "first in" gamble on that scale mind you.

He would have been better off putting the cash he spent on twitter on his lacklustre solar market entry, what an early days flop that turned out to be.

Solar & battery charging stalls, to up the Lo-No carbon charging stakes & push the agenda for profitable, non gulf state / war oil charging that "might" even be cheaper than home charging for some.

Likely a charger chain of coffee & wheatgrass shots "boutiques " to follow served in "Elon's mug" mugs 😆 for a signature musk-accino*

nb, nowt wrong wi' wheatgrass!

Rolling up to an equivalent of Timmy Hortons having clicked from the car screen that you are stopping in for a 10 minute charging tickle & having your order brought out to your car by a milton keynes type delivery bot 🤔 within 60 seconds of your tracked arrival, ...Da future
