IS THIS THE FUTURE? WAITING TO CHARGE AT TESLA SUPERCHARGER STATION


ONLY THREE TESLA SUPERCHARGER STALLS AVAILABLE IN THE ENTIRE CITY OF LAS VEGAS
ON A SATURDAY MORNING IS NOT AN ENCOURAGING SIGN.


Apr 16, 2022 at 1:46pm ET

By: Dan Mihalascu


It is never too late to go all-electric, but as an increasing number of drivers
switch to EVs, charging stations are starting to become more crowded and that is
reflected in the wait times.



This is something longtime electric vehicle owner Kyle Conner got to witness
last week in Las Vegas, Nevada, as he was preparing for a road trip in the
refreshed Tesla Model X Long Range. 

Pulling up at an eight-stall Tesla Supercharger station on a Saturday at around
11 am, Kyle was surprised to see that not only were all the stalls taken, but
also a line of Tesla EVs had formed. Mind you, this wasn't something isolated,
as all the other Supercharger stations in Las Vegas were crowded at the
time;only three stalls were available in the entire city.

In his first few years of driving electric vehicles, Kyle says he never had to
wait at a charging station. That was the early adopter experience, but things
have changed since then. EV sales have boomed over the past two years, but the
expansion of the charging station network is not keeping up with it.

That's not surprising because installing chargers, especially DC fast-chargers,
is extremely expensive. Because of this and the EV sales boom, Kyle predicts
that charging stations are going to get increasingly busy in just a few years,
particularly those belonging to public networks such as Electrify America, EVgo,
ChargePoint, and Greenlots.

So what can be done to ease congestion at DC fast-charging stations until the
infrastructure catches up with demand? Well, one solution would be to install
more Level 2 chargers in more places, as those would help ease the pressure on
DC fast-charging stations. 



Kyle believes there's a need for more charging stations at apartment complexes,
condos, office buildings, hotels and other places where a lot of cars are parked
at any given time. That makes sense, and we'd also add that home charging is
probably the best solution for EV owners who are not taking long-distance trips
that often.

At the end of the Out of Spec Reviews video above, we also get to see some
charging station rage as one Tesla owner cut in line and stole the spot Kyle and
the crew had just finished using. Unfortunately, as charging stations get
busier, these incidents are probably going to become more frequent as well.
