How these figures are estimated
- This is a proposal, not a built project. Figures are estimates for discussion and are refined with a site survey and the utility.
- Visitors and charging sessions per day: SolarPorts site selection research.
- Chargers: 16 Tesla posts (SolarPorts site selection), at most 16 per site.
- Use: each charger delivers 150 kW for 2 hours a day in year 1, growing 10% a year up to 6 hours a day (year 13).
- Rent: $0.10 per kWh delivered, fixed, for 30 years. Federal and state incentives and LCFS credits go to SolarPorts as the owner and are not counted here.
- Solar: up to 4 SolarPorts 120 (120 panels, 16 stalls each); production = kW DC × site irradiance × bifacial gain × (1 − 2% wire loss).
