Supercharger - Pasadena, CA - East Glenarm Street (LIVE 21 Oct 2021, 20 V3, 7 DCFC, 20 L2)

[RubberToe]

Maybe going to take some time until the main equipment area gets filled in. And then they need to put all the above ground equipment in and wire it all up. We will see.

 

[RubberToe]

Site seems very cleaned up around the central two islands. Maybe a concrete pour is in our immediate future?

 

[RubberToe]

They did pour some concrete along the North side of the property where the City DCFCs will be going. The site was very busy so I only managed to get this one picture.

 

[RubberToe]

Looks like posts are getting placed to support the fencing enclosure around the equipment. The Eastern area (first picture) where the L2 chargers will be going sure doesn't look like it will support EVSE, unless they will be going to the left (East) of the area that looks to be poured soon.

Here’s the latest construction update

 

[RubberToe]

Getting closer to the main pour...

 

[RubberToe]

Well, the light pole bases are poured. East side pour is still a mystery WRT any L2 charger infrastructure being put in there.

Might those tall poles imply that there will be a solar canopy?

The renderings don't show canopies, and the Superchargers at the Marengo garage on the roof don't have a canopy either. So I'm guessing not.

No, those will be for fencing surround the equipment pad area.

 

[RubberToe]

Rebar alert, rebar alert, rebar alert !

The short poles have been painted white, and the longer tall poles have been painted black. Been kind of a lull the last week or so.

 

[RubberToe]

I thought they were going to upgrade the lighting, but the old light poles are back up. Maybe they replaced the old bulbs with led?

Looks like two different kinds of city DCFCs going in:

Looks like two different models of Tritium chargers. The one in the foreground looks like the older 50kW style, same as the ones installed on the roof of the Marengo parking structure. The picture is not clear enough to determine what the other ones may be. Tritium also makes hardware for 75kW up to 350kW.

Hopefully those will be free charging as well for those of us that have Chademo adapters. LOL

 

[RubberToe]

Think I was correct about the LED lights. The pour is imminent as the open conduit tops have been taped over. The new chargers are 175kW.

 

[RubberToe]

Tesla signs on the black posts now. And a new charging service available in L.A., S.F. and Dallas. Saw this on my walk today.

interesting mobile EV charging program.. $25/month gets you 3 charges per week, at about 7kw, and adds about 50 miles per charge. Done at your residence or business. I don't see the point, but cool to see startups try
