Supercharger - South Surrey, BC

[Vancity-Tes1a]

Okay looks like it finally started!

I know we have all been waiting for this one. I can't wait for us to have a Flamethrower ribbon cutting ceremony!

This site should be done by end of November, next up to Tesla & BC Hydro when to turn on.

Very glad to hear this. Even 12 would not be enough for this area!

Yes agreed.

It has room to double to 24, which it will expand in 1-2 years.

This thread seems to be in the wrong place on TMC. Needs to go under the Canadian Supercharger tab.

@MacNeil I agree. I just reported the thread with a request to move it to Canada Supercharger locations.

Agreed.
I give it 1 year before expansion.
Surrey Guildford Mall went from 12 to 20 in a year, but then they had immediate congestion @ 72kW Urban Chargers.

Expansion would be great, as there are a TON of Teslas around these parts (and being right on the 99 not far from Peace Arch crossing with bi-directional border opening starting early November), it's going to be a very very popular spot. That said, I'll be delighted just to have any stalls down here, and so close to home.

@MacNeil cool that worked, looks like a moderator moved the thread and marked my report as completed. Thank you to whomever made the move.

Progress today:

Underground construction is almost.done. they hanged some signs with Tesla logo and text( i couldn't read from the distance) why does it take so long to open it when they can construct so fast?

BC Hydro needs permits and approval, etc...

This requires 30 days notice for power hookup and shutting power down to Save-On-Foods, needs notice as well.

So end of November done construction, & January-Feb will be open~

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??
