Thanks Marco! That location will be very useful to me when towing my trailer from Vancouver to Yoho National Park, a trip that I hope to do in summer 2021. The 212km gap between Kamloops and Revelstoke is problematic for me due to the much higher energy use when towing/

Looks like the same type of setup as the Vernon Supercharger. Vernon has 12 Tesla V3 and 4 Chademo CCS all installed by Tesla.

Do you have a photo or can you confirm how many stalls are showing? Currently we have 8 on Supercharge.info for this location. If you see more, please advise

Wow nice ... looks like 3 x L3 Flo Fast Charging Stations as well. So nice to see some inclusivity. Looks great, well done on the update, keep up the good work.

Nice, this looks like it is located so that if one wants to they can skip charging in Revelstoke and go straight to Golden, or vice versa. I just looked at ABRP and it is doable both ways with 90% SOC. This could take a lot of load off the Revelstoke chargers. I wonder if they will be putting in a new larger location in Revelstoke?

Along with the Vernon Supercharger this will take a little pressure off Kelowna as well depending on where people are heading. Vernon is kind of the gateway into the kootenays via highway 6. Nakusp would be a nice addition for the standard range bunch coming out of Vernon. .

Since there are 3 FLO chargers, as per NRCAN agreement it will be 25% non-Tesla chargers and 75% Tesla SCs so 9 of them!

Probably actually 12 of them.

Probably actually 12 of them.

I meant 9 Tesla SC+3Flo

 

[mociaf9]

I meant 9 Tesla SC+3Flo

Yes, and I meant 12 Tesla SC + 3 Flo.

 

[MarcoRP]

It's 8 SC + 3 FLO. Tesla does not do 9 stall builds in North America, and 12 SC + 3 FLO is an 80/20 ratio, which basically would violate the agreement

Makes sense. Besides this one, Jasper and Osoyoos also seem to be 11 station setup.

No transformer or meter as of August 13th. It won't be ready next week.

Stopped by today. And meter is installed but stations still don’t have power. Oddly there is some conduit sticking out of the ground with duct tape on it. But the station does look complete, from what I can see the only thing left to do is for BC hydro to turn it on.
