Tesla has completed the construction of its largest Supercharger site globally, featuring a total of 164 charging points. The project was initiated in July 2025 and saw the installation of 84 chargers initially, followed by an additional 80 chargers recently.
The facility, located on Interstate 5 halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, is nearly self-sufficient with a solar power plant generating eleven megawatts and ten Megapacks storing up to 39 MWh of energy. This setup ensures that each Supercharger can deliver up to 325 kW charging capacity.
Max de Zegher, Director of Charging at Tesla for North America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, Asia Pacific, announced the completion on X (formerly Twitter). He highlighted the critical need for additional infrastructure along the San Francisco-Los Angeles route due to projected high demand during the 2025 holiday season.
Despite initial plans calling for 168 Superchargers, Tesla managed to install a total of 164. The company’s ability to bypass traditional grid connections and rely on its own solar generation and energy storage solutions allowed them to meet tight deadlines efficiently.
In comparison, competitors like ChargePoint and Electrify America have been expanding their networks but with fewer charging points per site. For instance, Electrify America’s largest Supercharger site has only 50 chargers, significantly less than Tesla’s new facility.
The completion of this project underscores Tesla’s commitment to leading the electric vehicle market by providing extensive and efficient charging infrastructure. With an estimated 80% increase in EV adoption globally expected within five years, such large-scale projects are crucial for supporting growing demand.
