Supercharger - Williams (WA)

Murbs · Sep 21, 2020

It looks like Western Australia's Eaton Supercharger is going to lose its coveted most isolated Supercharger in the world honor when Tesla installs a supercharger station at Williams Woolshed early next year.

That's great news! I had a bit of a search but couldn't find any other corroborating info, except the TOCWA website. Is there are statement from the Woolshed, local council documents, etc?

Curious to see some sources?

Good for roadtrips from Perth at 165km SW.

But agree that Perth needs it's own SC

Even I‘m excited to see this news. Is it worth adding on Supercharge Info yet?

awesome. still need one north but anything is encouraging. Problem is the Perth one (which I don't need or want) has been "coming soon" since 2017! So what faith have we got here?

Despite the Williams Supecharger being another few months away from being operational this week brought some good news for all electric vehicles attempting the 415km Perth to Albany route with the opening of a DC charger in Kojonup 263kms south of Perth. Even the shortest range Tesla driving in poor conditions would only require a 30 minute top up in Kojonup.

Construction started, thanks to TOCWA for the update! Williams Supercharger Under Way! – Tesla Owners Club Western Australia

Word is that all Australian superchargers going forward will be V3, but hard to tell from this pic.

So looks like 3 stalls, with a slight gap due to tree.
Which would definitely seem to confirm a V3.

From posts on TOCWA, no movement from the above

Per Mark Tipping (TOCA President, as posted on multiple FB forums)

Great News for Western Australia coming out from TOCA's monthly meeting with Tesla's ANZ Executive Team
Although construction has been temporarily paused due to severe weather, Tesla Supercharger team are confident the new Williams Superchargers will be commissioned and active within five weeks - end of August!

And even better news for the rest of WA

As a further teaser, another FOUR sites are currently being worked for Western Australia. Unfortunately we can't reveal where those sites are so suggest we go hunting!
This further demonstrates Tesla's commitment to WA and the work the national Tesla Owners Club of Australia has been quietly doing for the benefit of all Western Australian Tesla Owners!

The only other site listed on the Tesla Supercharger map is a Perth Central site for 2022, so an additional 3 sites for WA is great news.

Stalls starting to be installed.

Williams Further Progress

Steve Rogers sent in these photos of the latest work at Williams Looks like it's coming along nicely - we're in planning for our next overnight roadtrip, and this will definitely be a pitstop on the way!
