    This is another location I'm rooting for. No one would want to drive back to the beginning of the cape just to charge.

    A little Birdy told me the supercharger should be up and running by this summer!

    These little birdies are a bit hard to believe if there is no proof of even a permit...

    EdA, well maybe the birdies are right! Permit referenced in both the Board of Selectmen and Conversation Commission meeting minutes. Anyone know the email info to report this to supercharge.info?

    "Stop & Shop 10 Route 6A Proposed installation of 12 Tesla charging stations with accompanying fixtures. Work to be overseen by GPD Group. Dana Gleason from Tesla was present to represent the project.
    Mr. Jannell asked if a silt fence would be installed along the length of the trenching area. Mr. Gleason noted even though it was not on the plan, it will part of the installation. Ms. Bruce noted that any planting for screening purposes should be native species only. Meff Runyon, member of the public, asked who could use the chargers and were there other requirements or permits needed from the Town.
    Motion: A motion to approve the Administrative Review was made by Judith Bruce and seconded by Walter North.
    Vote: 4- 0-0"

    " the Conservation Commission has received an application from Stop and Shop with a plan to install 8 Tesla charging stations at the far end of the parking lot"

    This is awesome news! I drive up to this area of the Cape at least once a year. I wonder if the superchargers will be version 3?

    The first official V3 site (not the beta test site that went live yesterday) is supposed to come online sometime in Q2. I would expect all new supercharger installs after that to be V3 but I haven't seen any conclusive info on this from Tesla.

    There are no v3, and the first will arrive in Tesla time.

    More Supercharger coverage is more important than having v3 Superchargers.

    Well there is one V3 supercharger test site online now at Fremont. Tesla has said that the first public V3 supercharger site will be online sometime in Q2. I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that the Orleans supercharger site will have V3 superchargers. I would be fine with V2 at that location though, but V3 would certainly be better. We still don't know if Tesla will only deploy V3 superchargers at some future date but I wouldn't be surprised if once V3 starts being installed that they stop installing new V2 superchargers.

    I hope it is V2 so my excuse for having to walk over the knack for a burger and shake can still work.
