Largest EV Charging Station In World Powered By Diesel-Powered Generators

The Harris Ranch Tesla Supercharger station is an impressive beast. With 98 charging bays, the facility in Coalinga, California, is the largest charging station in the world. But to provide that kind of power takes something solar can’t provide — diesel generators.

That small generator would take a very long time to charge that car. Also needs to be inverter generator. My estimate is that a generator operating at Level One draw would run for an hour on a gallon of gas, giving the car about 4 miles in range. A gallon of gas in a comparable sized piston car would get at least 20 miles of range.

The most effective way to charge a dead EV is flat-towing it.
