Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status
Today, I performed a ChargerAudit in Washington state, specifically evaluating the operational status of 10 Tesla Supercharger sites. To conduct the audit, I documented the functionality of the Supercharger stalls as displayed in the Tesla mobile app during my visit. Additionally, I assessed the charging success of Tesla drivers and recorded the number of stalls occupied at each site. While it was impractical to test every single stall, I diligently observed the condition of the stalls and monitored driver behavior, such as any instances of switching to a different stall, to identify any potential issues.
June 19, 2023 Stats:
Supercharger Sites Visited: 10
Total Stalls: 106
Down Stalls: 0
Operational Stalls: 100%
Notes:
In the morning, when I reviewed the sites we were scheduled to visit, I noticed that two stalls (1A, 1B) at the Bellevue, WA Supercharger were marked as “Out of Order” in the Tesla mobile app. However, when we arrived in the mid-afternoon, the app no longer showed any stalls as out of order and Teslas were charging on 1A and 1B. The #ChargerAudit approach aims to record the operational status as observed during the visit. Therefore, the Bellevue Supercharger is documented as having zero stalls out of service, and 100% up.
