Argh, sorry @Randy Spencer! I think I did one post while I was there, but then went back to Lafayette and did my next post from my desk. Too bad we missed seeing each other. Next time I'm heading that way, I'll PM you first. (My family was interested in the food trucks, if not the Supercharger.)

How long was the outage? We live on Alameda Proper and nothing needs to be reset. I checked the Alameda Supercharger this AM (thanks "LIKE" Ryan) and it was still going slow. I checked it again just now and it's charging at the full 93kW I have seen at every other Supercharger with this loaner.
Yay! We are officially open. Even this thread has been renamed!
Well, I guess the Tesla Supercharger site hasn't been updated, but that should happen in the AM. At least you can now route thru Alameda on their marketing "Go Anywhere" site.
Look forward to seeing you in Alameda, Bruce, and everyone else

The outage was on and off last for ~30+ minutes... maybe just a section on Bay Farm Is.

So awesome that Alameda is open.
Ok let’s start a new thread about Oakland! Anyone know where the proposed Oakland supercharging station is? I couldn’t find a thread on the site about it.

Umm...you don’t “start a new thread” by posting a new question in an existing thread.
To start a new thread use the “Create Thread” button shown on the upper right of this page California Supercharger locations
So far there is no thread specific to a Supercharger in Oakland because no one has found a permit or seen any signs of construction. It has been speculated about in this thread a number of times

Thank you.

Started a thread - looks like it was planned but maybe there will be some resourceful peeps that will add more info.

Just stopped by this morning. The Alameda Municipal Power guys were there. Tech update: The old Green Transformer that was hauled away was a "refurb" and they detected an oil leak. (The oil is used as an insulator inside the transformer). You should be able to see the oil on the concrete. So they replaced it with a new one (see pics earlier in the thread). The new transformer is in place, but apparently they didn't top off the oil properly, so they are performing a shutdown of the system and filling it up right now. They expected a short downtime (less than 30 minutes), so I had to unplug. He also said they hadn't actually lowered the tap on Sunday like they had planned, so they would be doing that as well. Apparently it is within acceptable range where it is, but Tesla is more comfortable if the power more closes matches the ideal power flow.
They also mentioned that tomorrow (Wednesday) is the official grand opening/ribbon cutting ceremony. I hadn't heard of this. Does anyone have details as to what time they are doing this? He said it was the kind where the local politicians come out with the giant pair of scissors and photo op stuff.

Southshore staff is out here right now. Looks like 11:30am tomorrow is the time of the ribbon cutting.
And you started that thread in the Model 3 forum. I’ve requested that a moderator move it to this forum, which is about California Superchargers. Note the title of this forum: “California Supercharger Locations”.

I recommend checking out supercharge.info to find all superchargers built/in progress and to visit their discussion threads easily.
There are also 3 California supercharger threads on the front page of the "Charging Standards and Infrastructure - North America" forum. I didn't look past the first page. There may be more. Not sure if you are capable of moving them, but it would be appreciated.

With all your contributions to this thread, you should be the guy holding the scissors
