Will Tesla agree to open its Supercharger network to all EV drivers in order to be eligible for federal incentives? We should know soon.
Ask anyone and they will tell you that the Tesla Supercharger network is the best in the US. It has more Level 3 EV chargers than any other. They are located along major routes adjacent to businesses where travelers can get fresh food and beverages — or do a little shopping — while they replenish their batteries. With very few exceptions, they are located in well lit places where drivers can feel safe at night.
Next week, the US Department of Energy will finalize the rules and regulations that will unlock $7.5 billion in federal money over the next several years to greatly expand the EV charging infrastructure in America. It’s all part of President Biden’s push to get the US to the point where half of all new light-duty vehicles sold every year are powered by batteries .. The government would like the motoring public to have access to all the lovely Supercharger equipment that all ready exists .
Part of it has to do with the fact that Superchargers are reserved for Tesla drivers in the US. Tesla is skittish about breaching that wall of exclusivity and worries its owners might get peevish if they have to wait for someone in an ID.4 or Rivian to finish charging ahead of them. That’s not really what people expected when they plunked down their money to buy a Tesla.
Musk met personally with White House officials last month to discuss the charging program, White House infrastructure czar Mitch Landrieu told reporters. Also note that Musk said in a July 2021 earnings call that the point of Tesla’s charging network was “not to create a walled garden and use that to bludgeon our competitors.”
