The station will have 16 pull-through chargers, specially for vehicles towing trailers, to make charging easier for electric trucks and towing vehicles.
These chargers will be useful for owners of Tesla’s upcoming Cybertruck.
Tesla is making the Supercharger station eco-friendly and reliable by using a microgrid with batteries and solar panels, generating power from sunlight and storing extra energy in batteries.
This approach helps them use energy better, cut down on power demand, and lower charging costs. It’s a clever way to be eco-friendly and keep the power supply stable.
Although the exact completion date of the Supercharger station is uncertain, its location between Northern and Southern California is strategic. This ensures it will be an important stop for drivers on this busy route.
The upcoming Supercharger station will be close to Tesla’s current Kettleman City Supercharger, which used to be the world’s largest.
World’s largest EV station in Germany: Germany opened the world’s largest EV charging station in Merklingen, offering 259 charging spots for electric cars.
They use a large solar panel setup above the charging areas to generate electricity from sunlight, acting as a roof. Any surplus power produced is returned to the regular power grid.
Shenzhen’s parking lot: The number of 259 charging stations is just one more than a parking lot that opened in Shenzhen, China, in 2023.
Tesla’s Supercharger network: According to Tesla’s website, they have over 50,000 Superchargers, making it the largest fast-charging network globally. The Superchargers can quickly add up to 200 miles of driving range to vehicles, depending on their battery size.
