Was just reviewing this site as I may be swinging through the area in a few weeks. In the photos in the 4/21 post Supercharger - Woodbridge, VA - Richmond Hwy (and subsequent photos of the posts), the stalls are numbered. That means the supercharger team has already been by and at least...

A few photos posted today on Facebook

A photo shared on Facebook taken today - crew onsite continuing the build.

At this point, I would be pretty sure that charging non-Tesla vehicles at this v3 4 post expansion will not currently work. It's hard to say if Tesla will enable this expansion in the future - that will likely require hardware upgrades to the posts and supercharger cabinet itself to do. The...

Updated overall site plan dated 4/23/2024 incorporating changes from reviews to-date. Still 36 superchargers in the plan (7 4-post PSU's and 8 traditional posts with 4 of them being ADA compliant). Overall project still in the preliminary design/review phase. With the Tesla supercharging team...

Last update I heard was probably 3-4 weeks ago was the site was waiting for some final utility work in the area before it was clear to have Tesla commission. That work *should* have been completed and the site ready for Tesla. With the chaos at Tesla and inability for contractors & utilities...

The Tesla app while still showing the site as temporarily closed, suggests 10/12 stalls available.

I'm likely passing through this site in a few weeks - really hoping it will be open (unlikely if I had to guess).

Good question - the site data is 250, so it should show 250 kW. @corywright

Absolutely nothing on the radar that I've heard of - and I agree, I-89 could use coverage.

And the expansion is live.

It delivered a normal rate of charge for me when I visited the site Friday.

All three are up and working (from personal experience charging at all three) - by all three, I include Canton, MA which is still vacant on the maps for some reason, but working. I'm guessing due to the fact that it has MagicDock and may be more complex to complete final commissioning or...

In my conversation with the Tesla Charging team members while at Lawrence, MA finishing things up there yesterday they indicated they were headed up to Lincoln, NH to commission the expansion this coming week (5/6-10). It will be great to see this one done!

Was dark upon arrival as some final work was performed. Up five minutes later. Had a short but sincere conversation with a member of the crew. Thanked them profusely for what they do on behalf of the community.

They won't have a schedule for Lowell. The site isn't done - it's between the contractor and utility to both finish - then Tesla gets back involved.

For some time now you can release the MagicDock CCS adapter by pressing and holding the button on the charge handle until you hear a click of it being released. Much easier than going into the app and releasing it by selecting the current pedestal.

Double-first Thursday. Perhaps the first two sites commissioned since the mass departure earlier in the week. Check-ins for 2024-05-02 - Salem, NH (#1367) (First to check-in) - shared with @dhkaufman - Canton, MA (#1368) (First to check-in) @dhkaufman opted to pass on the run to Canton as...

Encouraging status update on this site. The utility seems to have done most of their work to install new poles and overhead primary lines to get power near where the transformer primary conduit was run. Not sure if any further utility work is needed (other than an obvious missing transformer...

It is indeed live! MagicDock is also working, although it’s unclear if it would work for non teslas yet.

Salem was commissioned today much, I think, to everyone's surprise. So the clear answer is yes. Lowell still needs work from the contractor to connect where they stopped their primary trench to wherever National Grid terminates their line work on a new pole. Lots of uncertainty still there...

That was the commissioning team - hugs and thanks to them wherever they are.

I've never had clarity on if the team that does maintenance is one-in-the-same with those that do commissioning. It's logical they would be the same, but logic does not always apply.

I'm confident it will open - but it may very well be delayed coming online as Tesla sorts things out internally. It's really not clear how deep the cuts went on the staff that would be in the field commissioning new sites (or servicing existing sites for that matter), and those internally they...

From this picture, and the previous set, it appears there are new wires atop the poles running along the backside of the plaza to where the NG truck is.

To clarify my previous response - I also have no doubt sites done or underway will be finished. It's just that with most if not the entire charging team let go from reports coming out today, it may take time for these sites to be brought online - more time than is typical. It's the sites that...

This, unfortunately, may very well be the reality of what lies ahead. Time will tell. It may be that the days of site hosts getting Tesla to put a supercharger at their location as this site undoubtedly is are over.

Indeed. All sites ready to commission, underway and planned are up in the air. I have no doubt the sites like this one ready to light up and the ones underway will be finished and come online. With the hits today to the Tesla Charging team, I don't think anyone really knows yet how that...

12 stall v3 (not v4) supercharger site plan including a 56kW PV system

Presumably MassTuning Trackfest at Palmer this coming weekend. https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/masstuning-trackfest-may-5-2024-palmer-motorsports-park-335423

That's been there forever, and unrelated to the supercharger. I have it on good authority that the site is ready to go - just waiting on Tesla at this point I think.

Electrified Garage in Amesbury would be an option as well. They specialize in Tesla work, have done some amount of track performance upgrades on Tesla and have lots of experience overall. Is the work you are looking to have done related to the Model 3 Challenge by chance? Or is it some other...

Yeah, I think those that got them did. Apparently for some of use that new process Tesla just implemented this year didn't work out due to some back end account linking/data issues (so I'm told). I'm still waiting to get a resolution on this after two support tickets raised through the app...

A valid question. At this time, I don't think the original goal of having a supercharger co-located with this Neon Marketplace will ever go forward. I think the original intent was to do it, but once site planning for Neon on the plot of land was finished it was determined there wasn't enough...

FYI from what I understand, the superchargers are not YET online. I believe the transformer has been energized though and the site could go live sometime soon. No definitive word on when the solar canopy will be installed, but assume when that happens, for at least part of that phase of the...

At a destination charger there? Supercharger is not showing online anywhere.... Any pictures?

Well... I'll be honest, while I tried to do some math during the wait time before committing to the install, I didn't get far enough to put a smile on my face financially. We needed a new roof, the product sounded promising and looked a hell of a lot better than a bunch of panels. We wanted...

Just added. Unsure of where in the plaza this will be located without site plans - dropped a pin w/in the lot which can be moved once actual location becomes known. Also guessed as a 12 stall build initially.

Right now, I believe the first of it's kind v4 PSU install next to Giga-Buffalo where the first v4 PSU's are undoubtedly being fabricated is in West Seneca, NY. It's not open yet.

It's a Rivian RAN site. Being built by Gordon Construction who has done many of the New England superchargers. I thought I had posted an update on this but perhaps not, or else in another location. Here are a couple of shots from April 7th on the way up to Rockland, Maine and then on to...

Almost 3 years? Can't believe it's been that long. The Solar Roof continues to work well; hard to tell if there has been any degradation in output in such a short time (last year produced less than the year before, but one data point does not make a trend). No service visits on the roof...

Appreciate the comments/feedback/onsite info. It does appear Tesla's declaration of this being a 16 stall site was in error as the findus site now shows it properly as 8 stalls. supercharge.info updated.

The expansion disposition is based on the previous posts showing v4 posts, combined with Tesla's findus site showing 16 stalls (suggesting there are 8 more there, perhaps not live based on recent issues with data quality on Tesla's end, but perhaps nearly ready). If there is no indication from...

Thanks for the photos and update. Much larger than we thought! 39 stalls seems like an odd number (ie. would expect 40 to align with 4:1 post to supercharger ratio). The charging posts appear to occupy most if not all perimeter spots along the side of the hotel facing RT-73 and the back...

Curious - can someone confirm the v3 posts at this site have since been replaced by v4 posts as pictured here (from Facebook)? Also, the site now shows as 16 posts, up from the original site size of 8 posts. So I guess it's possible the site was expanded to have 8 v4's along with the original...

Thanks for the photo - confirms we're *still* waiting on the transformer. :confused:

I'm hearing this site is underway - can someone nearby visit and share a few pictures?

Not entirely clear this has been approved - it was submitted for review without a requirement for a public hearing (and was only a partial site plan insufficient for construction). As such, initially including it as in planning (vs. permitted)...

Building permits were issued 3/27/24, so construction could start soon depending on contractors schedule. Plan proposes to remove the existing 8 urban posts on level 2 of the garage, and install 12 new posts on level 1, and the other 8 on level 2 where the urban posts are now. These could be...
