This appears to be at the Carmel Valley Pavillions (used to be Vons)
The lot is already full typically, so will be interesting to see how this works out - probably will be located back in the corner that used to be the old souplantation parking area.
Really good location being right off the freeway where the 56, 805, and 5 meet with good access to coffee, food, as well as Karate for the kiddos

That is cool. The One Paseo supercharger is getting full

 

[JohnnyLounge21]

Fantastic.

I've never had to wait at the One Paseo but it was inching up there. This should squash that for the foreseeable future. Model 3/Y peeps will love the super high speeds on it also.

Before Covid, often the only parking spots left were the SC spots at One Paseo, the parking structure was that busy. Won’t be too long before we get back to that, so nice to see relief on the horizon.

Moderator note: In an attempt to keep things on-topic, moved a handful of posts about the "One Paseo" (Del Mar Heights Rd?) Supercharger to this thread:

Supercharger - San Diego, CA - Del Mar Heights Road (CLOSED 16 Sep 2021, 18 urban stalls)

I found this on scoutred: Project: Project Details | Open DSD Electrical: Approval Details | Open DSD Reasons I believe this is a supercharger: - Agent/Applicant is same as other SpC in San Diego, and the firm is "Tesla" (see first link) - Tesla SpC map lists "Del Mar" as a 2018 site. While...

All the preconstruction permits were just signed off this past week. Hopefully we see construction soon now that One Paseo is closed

Anyone hear or see anything on this one lately?

I was wondering the same thing apl199 but I think the answer is no. I live very close to this location. There is a lot of paint on the ground near the SDGE transformers by the closed Souplantation but not much else.

It’s been one year since the original post - this location is superior than the Torrey Hills location for out-of-town folks, so hope it’s gets built here. (BTW, has anyone noticed that literally 1/4 of cars on local streets in Carmel Valley are Teslas)

 

[Williamm]

Hey gaswla, your BTW is a bit off-topic but that's an astute observation. A journalist from the NY Times named Ivan Penn did an article of EV prevalence in the 92130. It's behind a pay wall but here's an excerpt...

"Consider Carmel Valley, Mr. Teglia’s well-to-do neighborhood in San Diego. Vehicle registration data compiled by Drive Dominion, a research firm, found that there are more Teslas registered in the 92130 ZIP code, which includes most of the neighborhood, than in all but two others in California, in Palo Alto and Orange County."

I often count the number of Teslas per traffic light cycle at the intersection of Del Mar Heights and El Camino Real and it can be upwards of 6 or more. That's pretty impressive.

Getting it back on topic... we could really use these new chargers in the Pavilions parking lot.

 

[Cosmacelf]

Has anyone done any urban air quality measurements with an eye to correlating to EV usage? You'd think we should be at that point where we should start to see a difference.

No construction yet here. Tesla seemed to have stopped building out all planned San Diego superchargers.

 

[Limited]

Must be a boo-boo

 

[PKMAN]

It’s still showing in Tesla’s website but no info on how many stalls. Quite strange.

 

[TeaHSD]

Has anyone done a drive-by recently to the parking lot? Souplantation is not coming back.

 

[apl199]

Here this morning and no sign of anything at all

 

[gaswalla]

I am going to suggest that we give up on this location. The permit expired 3 days ago.
