Supercharger - Saint-Louis-de-Blandford, QC

[Vawlkus]

I've never been when there wasn't a lineup, with at least one SC out of order. You've been super lucky.

To be fair, I’m usually at the end of a days travel up from NS headed elsewhere.

I've seen Levis busy during the day. But there are two new superchargers on the Quebec CIty side of the river now so I suspect that will help out quite a bit.

How long has this been in construction? Wow. Over 300 days.

I've passed by and saw that they are working on the conduits and concrete slabs for the cabinets.

Passed by today. All chargers are in their locations and crews are working on electrical connections. Talked to the site mgr, parts availability and workforce are the main reasons why this site is not completed. Hydro Quebec is not the main bottleneck according to him. They expect the site to be online by December.

Thanked them for their work and left. Sorry I didn’t take pictures maybe on my way back tomorrow.

As promised here are a few photos I’ve taken today. The workers weren’t there but a Tesla engeneering team was there inspecting the site. Looks like the only thing missing is the Hydro Québec transformer and powerline. So at this point I guess we can say HQ is now the bottleneck to open this site by energizing the Supercharger location.

I'll pass by next week but I doubt HQ will be installing the transformer for another 3 months.

Thanks for the update !

Just in time for the tunnel to become a PITA. I probably won't pass by there often for the next 3 years

There's a tunnel?

There's a tunnel?

From Montreal to the south shore. There are other bridges, but it will be difficult for the time being... Unless you absolutely need to go to the south shore before Quebec, it will be easier to take the 40 for the next 3 years.

Passed by this morning. As expected no transformers installed.

A friend of mine, Mary L, took this photo. Still no transformer and the pedestals are winterized.

Cool thanks for the update. I was passing by today and looks like I won't need to stop 😄

Still waiting for this one...
