Supercharger - Castlegar, BC

- Start date
Agreed. My point was not to go harass someone, just to point out that maybe the delay isn’t where we thought it may be. It will come online eventually, but dang, this has taken a while!Regardless of the reason for the delay, it is certainly outside the normal window of Permit>Construction>Opening.
I would say City hall and the Tesla supercharger Twitter. Maybe even Canadian tire Castlegar on Facebook. The squeaky wheel gets the grease.So what now? Contact city hall?
Contact - City of Castlegar
Connect with the City of Castlegar by finding a department, council member, or staff member.www.castlegar.ca
If only there were better disclosure on project status/progress then this consternation would be assuaged..
Indeed, their progress updates could be better than "Quarter x, 202x". Should they do better? Imho, they could and they should.
Do they have to? Of course not. Will they do better? Based on past and current practices, most likely no.
So we wait and wait. I could do Osoyoos to Creston with Chademo but it would be nicer with all Superchargers.

I recently followed up with the Fortis contact (Draydan Power, Manager, EV Infrastructure & Investment) mentioned in earlier posts, to get an update. He responded on Sept. 7, indicating that before they could install a meter and energize the facility, they need to have a signed “final operating agreement”. This agreement is currently with the Tesla team for review (as of his response on Sept.7). He suggested we follow up with the Tesla to confirm timing.
I’m shocked this one is taking this long. Surely it couldn’t of been in the plans for Tesla to delay it of any kind. It’s looked ready for months now
I sent an email to [email protected] but it came back with "This email address is no longer monitored". Then I tried [email protected] but they didn't respond at all. Then I tried to submit a question to tesla.com/contactus, but if your question is about supercharging, it takes you to an FAQ page. Sorry, no questions allowed. Finally, I tried tesla.com/contact. The Topic dropdown box only has two options: Ordering a Tesla Powerwall or Solar Roof, and Becoming a Tesla Energy Products Certified Installer. I chose the first option (because, why not?), but unsurprisingly, got no answer from there as well.
I guess when Tesla cut 10 percent of their staff, it included all of customer service plus the one person who signs off on Final Operating Agreements in southern BC.

Could it finally happen next week? See this post in the Revelstoke thread.
Revelstoke and Squamish both get 2nd Supercharger locates I less than 4 months from start of construction to activation.
Castlegard 3 years and still not activated. INCREDIBLE!!
IMO Highway 3 links are long overdue. Should have been higher priority and completed years ago.
