In one year, Tesla added over 850 public charging sites in the US

Tesla Supercharger

Tesla’s large network of proprietary public charge points continues to rapidly expand. In addition to the high-power Superchargers placed along well-traveled highways, the company has been deploying destination chargers at locations where drivers would want to stay for several hours at a time: like hotels, ski resorts, and restaurants.

According to data in PlugShare’s latest quarterly infrastructure report, both Superchargers and the lower-powered destination chargers saw large increases in US installations in 2015 Q3.
