Tesla Supercharger network

To be fair, some of it may have been due to circumstances out of their control. They need to negotiate for locations, get permits, hire local contractors, inspection, etc. Anybody in that chain could hold up the show for months.

This would be an excuse if that was Tesla's first year, but they have been building Superchargers for 5 years now, so they exactly what they were up against. Elon said double the chargers, not locations and I think we are close to that. Either way, I'm not complaining one bit. There is no other charging network that is anywhere near as useful, complete and robust as Tesla's Supercharger. Without the Supercharger network, my Tesla would not be worth much to me as I travel a lot on the road.

Without the Supercharger network, I probably would still be driving my Volt, because you're right, there really isn't any other practical way to take an EV more than a couple hundred miles right now.

There are now 500 supercharger locations open in North America! Canada: 36; Mexico: 6; USA: 458.

There were 361 open at the end of last year, the number that Elon said they would double. Looks like it won't be anywhere close to that, not even 50% growth unless they open four per day for the rest of the year. Still, pretty good all things considered.

More then double here in Chicago area with more coming soon. And the new ones are much larger with 12+ stalls. I think one reason for the slow down is that they are timing it to coincide with model 3. I know of 2 more new or expanded in Chicago area including highland Park service center getting 8 more stalls that I have not seen on any maps so there is a good chance that there are plans over and above what is shown on maps in grey as planned locations.
 
Would you think highly of my dedication to the cause or be afraid of my lunacy if I had? :)

But to answer your question, nope. I used curl, sed, grep, and a few other Unix tricks to parse the data from their web site. First time I had looked at the data that goes into the map, so it took maybe 20 minutes to find the list and parse it. There may be a couple errors, but the list should be very close to complete.
I found one so far that isn't on your list, Poncha Springs, CO.
 
(Context for those new to this thread - Tesla recently changed most of their "Due to open end of 2017" locations to "end of 2018" - except for a very small number of them which are marked as "Opening soon" - these are the sites listed below)

So going through @swaltner's list:

These ones already marked as under construction on supercharge.info - i.e. no further research needed:

Phoenix, AZ
Cupertino, CA
Fremont, CA (Fremont-Fremont Hub, CA)
Lake Elsinore, CA
Mt. Shasta, CA (Mt Shasta, CA - #2)
Sunnyvale, CA

Thousand Oaks, CA
Poncho Springs, CO
Danbury, CT
Orlando, FL (Orlando-Universal Blvd, FL)
Natick, MA - probably refers to Framingham, MA
Auburn Hills, MI
Livonia, MI
Jersey City, NJ
Woodbridge, NJ
New Rochelle, NY
Lynnwood, WA

Brighouse, UK (Northbound & Southbound)
Fleet, UK (Northbound & Southbound)
Graz, Austria (probably refers to Laßnitzhöhe, Austria)
Laval, QC
Liphook, UK
Merida, Spain
Madrid, Spain
Markham, ON
Owen Sound, ON
Pickering, ON
Ponferrada, Spain
Sanson, New Zealand (probably refers to Palmerston North, NZ)
Swindon, UK (probably refers to Membury Services Westbound & Eastbound)

Special cases

Yermo, CA - Already temporarily active
Skokie, IL - might mean Chicago-Wrigleyville, IL - but Tesla lists both locations, so "Chicago-Wrigleyville" is the name you would expect Tesla to use for the currently identified construction site. Skokie is possibly a new site.

The following sites are already under construction but unspotted! Get hunting if you are in these areas :)

Manhattan, NY
Manhattan, NY - Midtown
Yonkers, NY

Boras, Sweden
Condeixa-a-Nova, Portugal
Enfield, UK
Estremoz, Portugal
Kotka, Finland
Miyun/Beijing, China
Taizhou, China (there are two locations with this name - could be either one)

Wetherby, UK
Yueyang, China
 
Curse the edit time limit!

The two Portugal locations are sorted - they are actually the same as the ones already identified albeit about 50 km away from where the dots were originally marked.

The Taizhou, China location is Taizhou, Zhejiang, China. I could've just checked the map for that :-/

Beckley , WV is technically under construction although it has been complete including transformer and meter for over a month.

Yeah, there are quite a few under construction ones which Tesla has decided are not "coming soon" enough to label them as such - I guess they have a cut off as to how close is close enough for a "coming soon" label. They still might go live in the first couple of weeks of the 2018 so the label "coming before end of 2018" is not technically wrong!
 
I had my Model S in for servicing today at the Dublin service center (thanks to them for taking me in on the spot on the last Saturday of 2017 to fix a door handle that wouldn’t present) and got a couple pictures from the Supercharger display in the service lounge.

Update on my previous list:

Supercharger - Skokie IL
Supercharger - Yonkers, NY
Enfield UK is actually Supercharger - Enfield, Ireland
Condeixa-a-Nova and Estremoz in Portugal are actually the known sites at Fatima and Montemor-o-Novo

The rest are still up in the air!

How about the 65 NEW Superchargers opened in December 2017???

That is more than TWO a day.

There have been Quarters of the year that each month averaged roughly 30+ new Superchargers per month.
Unless the ground has already been dug, or the new location is Southern portion of hemisphere, the rate of Supercharger openings will probably slow down a bit.

Here is an update on the status of North American "Coming Soon" superchargers. There were by my count 283 on the Find Us page as of April 24, 2017 which claimed to have a target opening date in 2017. Including expansions, 11 stations came online in May, 10 in June, 10 in July, 18 in August, 23 in September, 25 in October, 17 in November, and 27 in December which is 113 or 40% of Tesla's ambitious 2017 supercharger network expansion plans. Tesla has added its unfinished sites targeted to open in 2017 to its 2018 list, so there are now 523 sites in the U.S. and Canada planned for 2018. The pace of openings will continue to be rapid, however, as the number of sites in permitting or under construction is at a record high. Below is a list of the sites that came online in December and the 85 sites for which we have information or at least rumors on their location. Sites with confirmed locations are shown at supercharge.info; details are available for all sites at the Supercharger Progress wiki.
