Supercharger - Columbia, SC

[Bishop]

Hhm i wonder where

When I visited the Tesla showroom in Charlotte a couple of weeks ago, they told me that they were breaking ground on the Columbia SC SC "next week"; however, I have not been able to confirm that it happened.

I will stay optimistic, but supercharge.info does not even show a permit yet.

I will stay optimistic, but supercharge.info does not even show a permit yet.

Most of the pre-opening information on supercharge.info comes from posters here on TMC and on the Tesla Motors forums.

I was told that Columbia and Charleston were coming in the next month or so. Both would be very welcomed.

I occasionally need to make trips to Columbia and Charleston. These will make that much more convenient.

Both locations would be awesome.

Nothing in Charleston yet - closest one is Santee which is a bit out of the way when you're coming east on I-26 to Charleston. Columbia and Charleston would make my life a lot easier.

I would guess Richland county.

I would guess Richland county.

I tried searching for permits in Richland county, but I came up blank when searching for Tesla. However, it could just be my Google skills were not as strong as needed.

[LastGas]

I haven't found that Richland County building permits are online.

Any new updates on this SC? Would make my trip to Charlotte a lot easier this Thanksgiving.

I've found some particularly antiquated local governments don't have their permits in a machine searchable system - e.g. in a database which prevents google indexing, or in a PDF which is stored as scanned images (i.e. text is not searchable). In cases like this it can involve manual flicking through hundred-page PDFs looking for a glimpse of any mention of Tesla, charging or EVs.

Well, if you get a PDF, I can index it.

I was told by Tesla again that this supercharger is in the works, but no date was given, as is the one in Birmingham, Alabama, that I really need for my trip next summer.

The ones I'm looking at relate to local governments around 9800 miles from you

In any hemisphere, Adobe Acrobat (not Reader) can OCR the document and make it searchable. It takes a while, but you can do other stuff.
