Tesla plans to operate public Megacharger sites at three electric truck depots it does not own, according to Electrek. Forum Mobility, described as one of the largest heavy-duty charging operators in the United States, said Tesla will run public Megacharging at three of four new California depots the company is preparing to break ground on.
Electrek reported that the arrangement coincides with Forum Mobility bringing an additional 30 MW of heavy-duty charging capacity online. The operator is also holding reservations for more than 330 Tesla Semis. According to the outlet, the deal is the clearest indication so far that Tesla's Semi charging network is being built out through partners rather than solely through stations Tesla owns itself.
