Tesla’s Supercharger network has reached the impressive new milestone of having deployed 60,000 charging stalls around the world.
The Supercharger network is the only global DC fast-charging network and, arguably, one of Tesla’s top contributions to electrification.
It is, more often than not, the most extensive and reliable charging network available to EV drivers, especially in North America.
As we have recently been reporting, the Supercharger network’s deployment has slowed this year despite usage skyrocketing as Tesla increasingly welcomes more non-Tesla EVs on the network.
That has to do with CEO Elon Musk firing Tesla’s entire charging team in a kneejerk reaction earlier this year and having to rehire many members of the team after the fact.
But despite that, the Supercharger network is still growing, and Tesla just announced the milestone of having deployed 60,000 Superchargers:
Tesla’s 60,000th Supercharger happens to have been deployed at the same station as Japan’s 600th Supercharger:
Earlier this month, Tesla shared some very interesting new data points about its Supercharger network, including the fact that it delivered 1.4 terawatt-hours of electricity through the network last quarter.
The fact that Tesla is now entering the terawatt-hour level of quarterly energy delivery through the network, it’s fair to say that charging electric vehicles is becoming a massive business.
