On May 20th, electric car maker Tesla has begun building a new supercharger station in the Mojave Desert between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, and it is likely to become the world’s largest supercharger station.Has 100 charging piles.
Tesla is currently rapidly expanding the size of its Supercharger network. At the end of 2020, the company installed 23,277 charging points at 2,564 supercharging stations. By the end of 2021, the company’s super charging stations will increase to 3,476, and the number of charging piles will increase to 31,498.Annual growth rate of up to 35%.
However, this expansion still lags behind the delivery of Tesla’s electric vehicles. During the same period,Tesla deliveries of electric vehicles jumped 87%. In addition, Tesla is now beginning to gradually allow owners of third-party brands of electric vehicles to use the network. It also lags behind Tesla’s own goal of tripling the size of its Supercharger network within two years.
However, we are seeing an acceleration in the expansion of Tesla’s charging network,Over 2,000 new charging stations installed last quarter.
Unlike many other charging station operators, Tesla is also known for deploying larger, more charging stations, rather than just four to eight, as companies like Electrify America or eVgo do. For example, Tesla has started building a new Supercharger station in Barstow, California, with 100 charging points in the Mojave Desert between Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
Barstow Mayor Paul Courtney confirmed the news this week. He revealed,Tesla has started building Supercharger stations locally.
Tesla already has two Supercharger stations in Barstowwith 16 and 18 charging piles respectively, so Tesla is not without charging capacity in the region, but it will be a major expansion of charging capacity.
Meanwhile, Tesla has several other charging stations on the roughly 500-kilometer route between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. After all, this is a very popular and busy route, and more charging stations are necessary.
Many electric vehicles, including the Tesla brand, can make this journey while parking and charging. At the same time, while reducing range worries, these charging stations can also provide owners with restrooms or lunches.
If Barstow’s new charging station really has 100 charging points, it will be the largest supercharger in the worldwhich is comparable in size to the Supercharger expansion at Harris Ranch in California.
Tesla often deploys its own ancillary facilities, such as cafes and restrooms, at larger Supercharger stations. It’s unclear if the new large charging station will be equipped with amenities, but it is adjacent to The Outlets in Barstow, a large open-air shopping centre with many amenities.
