Whilst walking along the Ottauquechee River (Tributary to the Connecticut) last week I came across this:
And, of course, the first question that came to mind was "How many Teslas can that charge?" It's connected to a 3750 KVA transformer so assuming unity power factor and no losses it could do...
A CT is going to require 400 - 500 Wh/mi. Tesla's biggest charger is 250 kW. That means charging rates of at best 500 - 625 miles per hour added at a SC (before taper cuts in) implying 24 - 30 minutes to replenish 250 miles. EA's biggest chargers are 350 kW meaning that were they compatible...
Got curious as to how many of us who reserved the CT also had a reservation for a Rivian. In addition to doing the poll tell us what you intend to do (e.g. keep both, keep the one you like best ...) if so inclined
