Supercharger - Yorkton, SK

[Demyen]

Just saw an update on driveteslacanada.ca that the Yorkton, SK Supercharger is officially under construction and judging by the pictures almost complete. It’s in from the Canadian Tire in the Parkland Mall.

277 Broadway St E, Yorkton, Sk

Obviously still needs somewhere between to avoid a 1/2 hour diversion to Brandon. But where would be the best place? There are a few small towns on that stretch.

Someone posted in another thread that both Russell and Neepawa would be getting superchargers but I can't remember where they were getting that info. Would be great to finish off the Yellowhead Highway!

This was posted today. Looks almost done. Not live on the app yet.

Lights on means it's (more than likely) on and open to the Tesla driving public.

The Flo DCFCs are live on the Flo app, but nothing showing up on the Tesla app yet.

Btw, pricing on these is $0.33/min. There's a GM dealer in town who had the only DCFC in Yorkton (still only 50kW) charging $0.70/kWh, so happy to finally see some more options! Obviously this will only get better when the SC's come online.

The Tesla mobile app is now showing this supercharger is open. 6 stalls showing open, 60 cents per kWh so standard rates as other superchargers in the province.

Saskatchewan having 13 superchargers is kind of crazy.

But I'm sure someone will come in here and complain about some other location not having one yet lol.

Yeah, have a look at the Quebec forums.

Both provinces have a lot of space up north. But unlike SK, Quebec has a much bigger population and a much, much bigger population of EV owners. The population centres around the Saint Lawrence, routes to the US, and now the Gaspe are pretty well covered, but it doesn't seem unreasonable that some of those people might want to travel up north. I'm sure there are some Saskatchewanians who feel the same, but not nearly as many of them.

Which app is this that shows active superchargers? I assume it's getting data direct from tesla?
