According to the building permit application, the new Supercharger station will have 164 charging columns, making it the largest in the world.
In addition, Tesla has planned 16 retractable charging columns for vehicles with trailers, a configuration that will allow charging without unhitching the trailers from the vehicles that are towing them.
The construction plan also confirms that Tesla is going to install solar panel canopies and battery storage systems at the new Supercharger. This will make the station less dependent on centralised power supply.
The timeline for the availability of the new, world's largest Tesla Supercharger station is not yet known. What is clear so far is that it will serve heavy traffic between Northern and Southern California. Tesla has already invested heavily in this route. In fact, the new station will be located near the existing Tesla Kettleman City Supercharger, which was the largest Tesla charging station in the world when it opened.
