The transformer is on the pad, but not wired to high voltage supply yet.

I am guessing the two tall cabinets are switch gear and not batteries, but I don't really know anything.
It looks like they will take a three phase drop from a new pole which is right next to the transformer pad. But the conduit is only to the base of the pole so far, no pipe has been run up the pole yet.
There is a new cross bar at the top of the same pole that appears to be ready for a 3 phase tap to run down the pole.
Those insulators are much smaller than at the Burlington SuperCharger. A Duke Energy representative told me that the Burlington SC was fed by 22,000 VAC three phase. I am guessing these are 12 kV or less. It would still only be about 24 amps at 12 kV three phase to power the full super charger, if my math is correct.

The stall with the charger positioned for nose-in charging was wider than the others, but I only saw 8 pedestals.
I had not seen the signs, they were still working on them when I was there earlier.

Oh darn. I’m drying through today and was hoping to hit Greensboro instead of Burlington. Guess I’ll just have to come again!

Sure did, but what's the next step here? It's been sitting around collecting signatures for some time. Is it ever going to be "submitted"? Has there been any update on this? I wrote to the DOT and never heard back (a few others have though).

Yes it will, right now we have just over 2k I'm trying for 2500 by the end of the months and then I will present it or have it summited based on the information at that time. I wish in the last two month we could have had more but I am pleased with the results none the less. I have spent hundreds of dollars promoting this petition. I like you want to make it count when it does get submitted.

Just went by the GSO supercharger. They are removing the fencing and putting out final mulch. All landscaping is in. They are leaving by day's end but don't know when the switch gets flipped.
Stopped this morning, looks finished, all construction equipment/fencing gone. No power but I did get to park in a real spot.
Note the delivery truck on the left, this is where Sheetz supplier was parked which would make access to several of the stalls difficult. This may be the "ICEing" problem for this site till sheetz/suppliers gets used to this corner of the parking lot being used.

Stopped by this morning also, site looks good, but the High Voltage lines haven't been run down the pole and into the transformer. I'm not sure the stalls are going to be powered on before I head back north tomorrow. Maybe next trip!
Oh, the ICE cars must be VERY impressed with the speed of charging, these electric cars coming in and leaving a minute later
