Sometimes, I think I have it bad as an EV driver in New Mexico. Only very recently did all of the state’s interstate highways get CCS charging, and many popular U.S. highways in the state don’t have any charging at all, not even from Tesla. In the past, if I wanted to feel better about things, all I had to do was look at North Dakota on Plugshare. It wasn’t long ago that the state didn’t have a single DC fast charging station.
“With our entrance into North Dakota, EV drivers are now able to enjoy hyper-fast charging speeds in 47 states,” said Brandy Mathie, director of site acquisition and portfolio management at Electrify America. “This is a significant milestone in making EV ownership accessible to all communities.” In addition to the station in Jamestown, a new station is coming soon to Grand Forks, near Interstate 29, with two more stations in North Dakota expected to follow in 2024 . But, in the case of Grand Forks, the CCS network is going to get another good infusion of stalls for capacity and redundancy.Looking at Plugshare, Tesla currently has 5 Supercharger stations in the state, which is 5 more than they had 3-4 years ago.
From a CCS-owner perspective, these five stations provide even more redundancy to the network along the interstate highways, allowing for more confidence traveling in the state. Add this to EA’s improved current-generation stations, and things are getting a lot better for everyone.As I’ve previously reported, there’s a partnership between GM and EVgo to install charging stations at many Pilot and Flying J travel centers all over the United States.
