    Power is on! The lights look great. Looks like they are setting something up on laptops connected to it via Ethernet. Should be soon now!

    Had a chat with them, BC Hydro is turned on and they should be turning on their end by the end of the day! I'll be sure to post an update.

    Unfortunately yes, check a few posts above yours for some more info. From the parking lot side (facing Save On) 3 on the far left have been stolen and one on the far right. The pictures I posted on the 17th were taken on the 13th and at that time I thought I had noticed the cables missing from...

    Yes, seems like they had to add capacity to where power is distributed to the complex. Power was off to Save On and Staples. Colwin (who contract for Save On) was responsible for the generation setup. That generator was apparently burning through around 60 litres of diesel an hour! I wish I had...

    Sorry for the late update. Here are some more pictures from Monday's work: I didn't get many pics of it, but the 2nd picture is of the truck on the opposite side of the mall access road. That is where the power is fed from (and for the whole complex). New sump pumps were installed there as...

    Seems No, doesn't look like any Tesla presence here. BC Hydro has just left and I think they are switching Save On back to the grid after closing. I have some more pictures I will post a bit later.

    I think it would be for any water that seeps into the hole they are digging. I'll send you a DM. Some more pics. Fun fact the generator is capable of 1MW, but Save On is only using about 400 KW.

    Construction is underway! Lots of activity here, flaggers on both sides of the mall access road, pump truck, etc... Also, Tesla is paying for the generator powering save on. I believe Staples may be closed for the day but not confirmed.

    Oh wow, that is unfortunate! I had noticed the missing cables earlier but didn't think that they were cut. Hopefully they can get replaced quickly. In other news, BC Hydro is on site tonight setting up for the big day. Here's a couple pics of the generator and the wiring they'll be using for it.

    Took these pics a couple days ago but I've got a big update here. Next Monday the 24th BC Hydro is shutting power off to Save On and Staples from 8am-6pm. Generators are being brought in to cover while they perform the work. I'll be here that day so I'll definitely be getting lots of pictures...

    Electrical work has started! I asked one of the guys there if they are 72 kWh but he said they aren't allowed to comment. Can anyone tell based on the equipment??
