Monday afternoon

If you're in York that's going to make it real easy for you.

Here's the latest progress..

Tesla lays out plans for Lincoln charging station | Local | journalstar.com

That's the only one we have with a shovel in the ground," he said

I guess he hasn't seen the pictures from Ogallala and Gothenburg. Then again, maybe they stuck an actual shovel in the ground in Lincoln.

Maybe somebody will let him in on the secret. But seriously, i will try to scope out Grand Island in a few weeks. I will have to be using my winter car till one of these show up operational, Lincoln, GI, or Kearney. If anybody has any ideas as to where to look, please let me know. Heard rumors of possibly Arby's and Ruby Tuesday, but nothing confirmed

The Lincoln Journal article was so screwed. There are no solar cells for this site. Why are they showing that? They ought to get off their duffs and go out and take some pictures! Like I did!

Hey, you'd be doing a real public service if you discover permits for GI or Kearney. Buy you lunch! (At HyVee in Lincoln--when it's finished)

The photo in that article is of a J-1772 EV charging station in Bethesda, Maryland. @mczajka has held a few MDVolt Meetups there.

Not a supercharger in sight..

But they do have their token <2000 watt solar array towering over their ~7000 watt J1772!

 

[wcfinvader]

Anyone want to take a guess at when this could be operational?

 

[msksus1]

Potentially Christmas. Gothenburg is coming along nicely. Guessing that will be finished approximately at the same time.

Do you get the impression that they don't have a clue..?

Wishful thinking maybe but with the slabs poured and if they get the equipment on site I think it might happen the first of December. Wild guess. Nice Christmas present! I'm in Lincoln so I'll make sure I check this often. I think the hangup is often that Tesla needs to come out and inspect before use. That could delay things.

I sure hope it does open before Christmas. It'd save us a trip through Omaha to get to Missouri.

Just now

Finally a green supercharger.

It's happening..

One of the workmen said it should be about 2 weeks. Apparently the holdup is LES. They still need to do some stuff. Yipee! Let me know if that pic doesn't enlarge when you click on it.

 

[W0QR]

Better pic..

It's Saturday..here's the latest:

Under each cone of course is 4"(?) conduit for the 440VDC. That has not been pulled yet. 8 Stations.
