I-25’s Southern Stretch Is Finally Getting Some EV Rapid Charging Love
There’s an interesting geographical oddity for CCS drivers in southern New Mexico. If you want to drive to Phoenix, Arizona, it’s not that hard. Electrify America has put in stations in Deming and Lordsburg, and there are plenty of stations after that to get you to Phoenix and many points beyond without having to spend hours at an RV park or something. Car dealership CCS stations in Las Cruces and Alamogordo extend the range of this easy EV reach toward the southeast part of the state as well.
. While details have been a little sparse, the company has told me that they were dealing with supply chain shortages that kept them from building quickly, and it appears that they changed their plans to build faster stations with a second round of Dieselgate funds. With this second funding round and supply chain issues starting to ease up, we’re starting to see construction resume at several sites in New Mexico.
We have no idea what the current plan is for that station, or whether the governor intended to be deceptive, but it’s pretty clear that nobody should count on the station happening any time soon. Another possible way that Socorro could get a few more stations would be with Tesla’s Magic Dock, which adds built-in CCS adapters to their stations. There’s no indication that the company plans to add Magic Dock to these new stations, but it’s something that they could end up doing, and possibly before the state gets around to adding stations at the Socorro Plaza.
